This is a long division puzzle, having ten digits represented by ten unique letters, whose solution 0 through 9 spell out a word or phrase. The solution involves finding the unique decimal digit solution of each letter by using long division techniques.
Dividend The number that will be divided, "L I G H T" in the example above.
Divisor Divides into the Divident, " M E W" in the example above.
Quotient The result of the division, without the remainder. "G O" in the example.
Remainder "L G G" in the example above.
Subtraction Step One step in the long-division process, a row of subtraction. There are two subtraction steps in the example above:
L I G H E N I T
L M N O H I I H
─────── ───────
E N I L G G
There is one subtraction step for each digit of the Quotient.
Note that each step vertically overlaps other steps, but on the other hand,
is only a horizontal subslice of the width of the overall dividend .
com.wapitia.worddivision.model.Subcell A Subtraction cell focuses on a single vertical column from a Subtraction step, such as:
I
I
──
G
These digits, along with any carry or borrow, can be an isolated part of the solution.
