Pseudo Division Using Repeated Subtraction

Pseudo Code for Division using Repeated Subtraction

Input:

• x: numerator
• y: denominator

Output:

• quotient: division result of x by y

Pseudo Code:

1. Set quotient to 0
2. While x is greater than or equal to y:
   1. Subtract y from x
   2. Increment quotient by 1
3. Return quotient

Example:

Function divideUsingSubtraction(x, y):
    quotient = 0
    While x >= y:
        x = x - y
        quotient = quotient + 1
    Return quotient

Note:

• This pseudo code demonstrates a simple algorithm for division using repeated subtraction.
• It calculates the quotient of x divided by y by subtracting y from x iteratively until x is less than y.
