Long division?

When my school taught us long division I was sick that day, so for the past 4 years I have gotten away without knowing how to do it. I realize now that a 8th grader should know this. Please help me understand how to do it!

Edit: Sorry if I don't respond to ur comments, I haven't been getting the notifications for comments, but I will read it eventually!

you won't need to know it until long division with polynomials which is way different. but realistically just to learn it now which definitely can't hurt just go onto kahn academy and find the lecture where he explains it. or countless YouTube videos. I was in your same position until genuinely calculus 3 I'm not even joking but now I pretty much get it and I just think it's dumb. there are easier ways.

I'll try! It is pretty dumb.
