2 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 829, we need to group it as 29 and 8.</p>

3 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we need to find n whose square is<a>less than</a>or equal to 8. We can say n is ‘2’ because 2 * 2 = 4 is less than 8. Now the<a>quotient</a>is 2, and after subtracting 8 - 4, the<a>remainder</a>is 4.</p>

5 <p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be the sum of the dividend and quotient. Now we get 4n as the new divisor, we need to find the value of n.</p>
5 <p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be the sum of the dividend and quotient. Now we get 4n as the new divisor, we need to find the value of n.</p>
6 <p><strong>Step 5:</strong>The next step is finding 4n × n ≤ 429. Let us consider n as 7, now 4 * 7 * 7 = 294.</p>
6 <p><strong>Step 5:</strong>The next step is finding 4n × n ≤ 429. Let us consider n as 7, now 4 * 7 * 7 = 294.</p>
7 <p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 429 - 294, the difference is 135, and the quotient is 27.</p>
7 <p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 429 - 294, the difference is 135, and the quotient is 27.</p>
8 <p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Since the dividend is less than the divisor, we need to add a decimal point. Adding the decimal point allows us to add two zeroes to the dividend. Now the new dividend is 13500.</p>
8 <p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Since the dividend is less than the divisor, we need to add a decimal point. Adding the decimal point allows us to add two zeroes to the dividend. Now the new dividend is 13500.</p>
9 <p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Now we need to find the new divisor that is 54 because 547 × 7 = 3829.</p>
9 <p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Now we need to find the new divisor that is 54 because 547 × 7 = 3829.</p>
10 <p><strong>Step 9:</strong>Subtracting 3829 from 13500, we get the result 9671.</p>
10 <p><strong>Step 9:</strong>Subtracting 3829 from 13500, we get the result 9671.</p>
11 <p><strong>Step 10:</strong>Now the quotient is 28.7 Step 11: Continue doing these steps until we get two numbers after the decimal point. Suppose if there are no decimal values, continue till the remainder is zero.</p>
