<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 2268, we need to group it as 68 and 22.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we need to find a number whose square is<a>less than</a>or equal to 22. We can say this number is 4 because 4 × 4 = 16, which is less than 22. Now the<a>quotient</a>is 4, and after subtracting 16 from 22, the<a>remainder</a>is 6.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Bring down 68, making the new<a>dividend</a>668. Add the old<a>divisor</a>(4) with the same number (4), getting 8, which will be our new divisor.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be 8n, where we need to find n such that 8n × n ≤ 668.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be 8n, where we need to find n such that 8n × n ≤ 668.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>By trial, we find that 8 × 8 = 64, and 648 is close to 668. Subtracting gives us a remainder of 20, and the quotient becomes 46.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Since the dividend is less than the divisor, we add a<a>decimal</a>point, allowing us to bring down two zeros, making the new dividend 2000.</p>

<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>We find the new divisor to be 929, since 929 × 2 = 1858, which is less than 2000.</p>
