A way to solve long division in 1/10th the time.

It only works "well" if you can round denominator up to easy number to solve without making the "factor" too high.

Here is another shortcut.... ANY number / 9

1234/9

= 1, (1+2), (1+2+3) R (1+2+3+4)
.... or 137 R 1

Shortcut for 5

1234/5 double each of the top numbers (except last digit which is remainder)

= 246 R 4
