    The box method of division is similar to traditional long division, but it helps with organization and keeping columns lined up.

  • 2

    The steps for the box method are: divide, multiply, subtract, bring up, and repeat.

  • 3

    When using the box method, the answer is found on top of the box, not at the bottom.
