996 divided by 12.

996/12?

Start with the 9. 12 doesn't go into 9, so you get 0. NO times does 12 go into 9. Write 0.

0

So, keep going, use the 9. 99. 12 goes into 99, definitely, 99 is bigger than 12.

1 12 is 12. 2 12's are 24. Etc. 8 12's are 96. 9 12's are 108, so it's bloody 8. Not 9.

Write 8. After the 0.

08

Now, 8 12's are 96. So take away that 96 from the 99 you tried to divide it into. 99 take away 96. It is 3.

So replace the 99 (which you already tried) with the 3.

So, instead of the 996, you have 36. Replace the 99 with the 3. 996, replace the 99 with 3. 996, 99(3)6.

Now you have 36.

1 12 is 12, 2 12's are 24, 3 12's are, fuck me, 36! So it's 3. Write it. 3. Write it after the 08.

083

083 is the same as 00000083 or 83. It's bloody goddamned fucking well 83.

There.
