Does McDonalds Sell Cheeseburgers?


Did you know that this question could help you remember how to divide? The question is an example of a mnemonic device.  A mnemonic device is technique a person can use to help improve their ability to remember something.  Each letter represents a step to long division, as you can see in the steps to the right. 
(The C in Cheeseburgers stands for CHECK, before you bring down) 




 



We will be learning another mnemonic device next week.  

Hint: Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally :)  





I know some of us were a bit stressed out yesterday, going over the long division steps.   I have provided some videos below to help visualize the steps and use as reference for homework if needed.
