Write the problem in the special format:

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{6}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{8}\end{array}&\\45&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}3&1&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 1

How many $$$45$$$'s are in $$$3$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$3-45 \cdot 0 = 3 - 0= 3$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccc}\color{Peru}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{8}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{45}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccc}\color{Peru}{3}& 1 \downarrow&0&0&.&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllll}-&\phantom{1}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&1&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 2

How many $$$45$$$'s are in $$$31$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$31-45 \cdot 0 = 31 - 0= 31$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccc}0&\color{DarkMagenta}{0}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{8}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{45}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccc}3&1& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllll}-&\phantom{1}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{DarkMagenta}{3}&\color{DarkMagenta}{1}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{1}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&1&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 3

How many $$$45$$$'s are in $$$310$$$?

The answer is $$$6$$$.

Write down $$$6$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$310-45 \cdot 6 = 310 - 270= 40$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
