Curly is solving a division problem.
He tells his partner:
First I multiplied 25 by 100 to get 2,500.
Second I subtracted 2,500 from 3,756 to get 1,256.
Third I multiplied 25 by 50 because it is half of 100 to get 1,250 which is half of 2,500.
Fourth I subtracted 1,250 from 1,256 to get 6.
Curly says his final answer is 100 + 50 + 6 or 156.

What is the error in Curly's thinking?
