Look at the first digit of the number in the bus stop and see
if you can divide 17 into it.
Now look at 42 (17 does not go into 4).
Look at the 17 times table. 2 x 17 is 34
Write 2 above the 2 and 34 under 42.
Now take away the 34 (2 lots of 17) from 43
Write underneath what is left (8).
Bring down the next digit (7).
Look at the 17 times table. 5 x 17 is 85.
Write 5 above the 7 and take away 85 from 87. Which is 2.
Then bring down the next number.
Look at the 17 times table.
10 x 17 = 17. Write 1 above the 5.
Take away 17 from 25.
25 - 17 = 8
Bring down the next number which is 1.
Look at the 17 times table. 4 x 17 = 68.
Take away 68 from 81.
As there are no more numbers to bring down so whatever is
left is the remainder.
