Long Division Primes Squares and Cubes
A prime number has only 1 and itself Square numbers result from a number
as factors: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, being multiplied by itself (e.g. 5 × 5 = 25):
1 2 0 r 3 23, 29, 31, 33, 37, 41, 43
1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100

2 8 3 Mental Calculations and Reason from Known Facts
2 8 0 Estimation 90 ÷ 10 = 9 so 90 ÷ 20 = 4.5 and 90 ÷ 5 = 18
Order of calculations:
3 50 × 34 × 2 = 50 × 2 × 34 = 100 × 34 = 3400
16 × 9 = 144 so 1.6 × 9 = 14.4
