    If you’re doing long division, you have to do a bunch of multiplication and a bunch of subtraction.

    In the long division algorithm I learned, you ‘carry down’ the next digit in the dividend next to the remainder from each successive subtraction.

    And nobody wonders what digit Caulfield is referring to? I only wonder which hand it’s on.

    The sad part is, with education being what it is, no one remembers how to do long division anymore. I was in high school in ‘93 and didn’t have a calculator in one math class. So out came some scrap paper and I quickly jotted down a long division equation to do my work. When I looked up, the 6 kids sitting around me were all staring at me oddly. One leaned over and asked what I was doing, so I told him.

    “Where’d you learn to do that?” is what he asked me. (This was a Grade 11 Math class.)

    You have no idea how difficult it was to keep from beating my head on my desk in frustration.

    I used to get so stressed out over long division that I would end up with a migraine and would vomit. My teacher at the time was so mean that my mummy had to have three meetings with her.
