Step-by-step solution (long division)

Step 1

Look at the first digit(s) of the dividend: 24. Divide: 6 goes into 24 4 times (6 × 4 = 24). Write 4 above, then subtract: 24 − 24 = 0.

Step 2

Bring down the 0 to make 0. 6 does not go into 0 (it is smaller), so write 0 in the quotient.

There are no more digits to bring down. So 240 ÷ 6 = 40 exactly (remainder 0), so 6 divides 240 evenly.
