Well that's a simple answer -- I didn't do long division at the time I learned division.
Here's a timeline to make it simpler to comprehend:
Division --> Subtraction --> Long Division
Although I gotta say, my school didn't put much emphasis on long division. We spent maybe one day on it, total. The teachers believed (correctly, I might add) that electronic calculators would end up doing most of that for us.
We learned to use calculators for menial tasks and focused on the theory behind mathematical concepts rather than calculating mathematical results.
Have you been eagerly awaiting an answer to that question so that you can accept that I'm not some looney person spewing total BS?
I believe that you're deceiving yourself and trying to deceive me. Your gear is up so you can show off. It may accomplish other tasks by being up, but those tasks are not the motivators that made you decide to type a list of all of the cool things you thought you had. I don't care that you're showing off, but you might learn a lesson from your own actions by coming to terms with your motivators. You might learn to be less abrasive in your attacks, realizing that others are trying to defend their pride and boost their egos in the exact same sense that you are.
