Re: Add 13 more and post it forever.

14040      (check answer:  13 into 14 once. Remainder 1, put with 0 in middle of 14040 for 10.
Next 13 into 10 is zero, so now we have 10 to remember as our current running answer.  Then
we add the 4 onto the below subtracting 10 for 104.  13 into 104 is exactly 8.   So our running
answer is now 108.  Next we have 13 into 0, and we get 0 with a remainder of zero and we
now know where our decimal point goes, above the other one of 14040 in this case.
So we get 1080 for the quotient, which is the # of this post too, yeah!! smile smile

Re: Add 13 more and post it forever.

14066 = 14040 + 13 + 13 = 14040 + 26 = 14053 + 13, so should be correct.
