[nabs-l] Long Division

[jessica hodges]

odd. i can't seem to find this anywhere. But the question still remains 
how to understand the spacial aspects of long division? I have seen 
problems worked out in braille and I can't fathm what numbers go where, 
why, or how any of it relates.

Will do more searching for this product, it seems interesting. Thank you!

Jessica.
