#16# Remainder #0#

Explanation:

#64-:4=64/4#

We write #64/4# in the long division format.

#4|bar64#

Divide #6# by #4# and you get #1#
Multiply #1# with #4# (the divisor)

.......#1#
#4|bar64#
......#ul4#

Subtract: #6-4=2# and bring down #2# and bring down the next number (#4#)

.......#1#
#4|bar64#
......#ul4#
.......#24#

Divide: #24-:4=6#

.......#16#
#4|bar64#
......#ul4#
.......#24#

Multiply #6# by #4# (the divisor)

.......#1#
#4|bar64#
......#ul4#
.......#24#
.......#ul24#

Subtract: #24-24=0#

.......#1#
#4|bar64#
......#ul4#
.......#24#
.......#ul24#
..........#ul0#

Therefore, #64-:4=16# with a remainder of #0#.
