3) Click on the title Lessons/Practice

4) Scroll down the page and click on "Long Division Lessons"

5) Read through the page, then click on "Coolmath's Long Division Practice"

6) Go through the steps of this tutorial (lesson) step by step, reading ALL directions and looking at the corresponding math work. When you finish reading through the page, click on "Go to Next Page"... and repeat step #6!

7) When you get to the fourth page, follow the steps, doing your own math on your scrap paper, then checking your answer by sliding your mouse over the answer boxes.
