Imagine you are drawing a comic strip showing how to solve the problem 72 divided into 4 to new 4th graders. create a script to explain how you can keep dividing after getting a remainder of 3 tens in the first step

To solve the problem of dividing 72 by the divisor of 4, we can simply put up a simple similar scenario involving 72 eggs to be equally divided to 4 baskets.

First, we divide first the tens digit which is 7 by 4. We get 1 and a remainder of 3 tens. Meaning each of the egg basket is having at least 10 quail eggs. 

Then, 3 tens will be coupled with 2 thus making 32. We further divide the resulting number with 4. We know that four (4) eights make up to 32. In equation, 8+8+8+8 = 32 or 4x8 = 32. Thus, 32/4 will give us the quotient of 8. Meaning each basket will get 8 eggs.

Adding all up, 10+8 eggs will give us 18 eggs. Therefore, each basket will contain 18 eggs. 72 divided by 4 is 18.
