Why is division slower than multiplication? RT, it seems to be half the time slow. Thank you,

Division is generally a combination of subtraction and shift, just like you use vertical calculation. Each bit in it needs more time to judge. On CPU without division instruction, it is much slower to use similar program. In some optimization cases, division can be replaced by multiplication, but it is still slower than multiplication
