Long Division In this lesson a story example-the magazine delivery problem-is used to develop the universal procedure for a division problem. ""Divide multiply subtract bring down"" is no longer a mantra but has become a well-understood sequence of steps related to a concrete problem. Various types of long-division problems are discussed.
