Step 2: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (4360) by 2:

4360 ÷ 2 = 2180 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 3: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (2180) by 2:

2180 ÷ 2 = 1090 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 4: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (1090) by 2:

1090 ÷ 2 = 545 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 5: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (545) by 2:

545 ÷ 2 = 272 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 6: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (272) by 2:

272 ÷ 2 = 136 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 7: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (136) by 2:

136 ÷ 2 = 68 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 8: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (68) by 2:

68 ÷ 2 = 34 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 9: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (34) by 2:

34 ÷ 2 = 17 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 10: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (17) by 2:

17 ÷ 2 = 8 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 11: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (8) by 2:

8 ÷ 2 = 4 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 12: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (4) by 2:

4 ÷ 2 = 2 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 13: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (2) by 2:

2 ÷ 2 = 1 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 14: Final actions

The Quotient is less than 2 (1), so we will transfer it to the beginning of the number as a reminder.

Step 15: Write the Remainders in Reverse Order

Now, write down the remainders obtained in reverse order:

10001000010000
