Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps to perform long division:

  • Step 1: Divide 8 by 13. Thirteen goes into 8 zero times, so check next digit to make 84.
  • Step 2: Divide 84 by 13. Thirteen fits into 84 six times (since 13×6=78 13 \times 6 = 78 ).
  • Step 3: Subtract the result from 84, giving 8478=6 84 - 78 = 6 .
  • Step 4: Bring down the next digit of 845, which is 5, making it 65.
  • Step 5: Divide 65 by 13. Thirteen fits into 65 five times (since 13×5=65 13 \times 5 = 65 ).
  • Step 6: Subtract the result from 65, giving 6565=0 65 - 65 = 0 .

The division ends here with no remainder, meaning our quotient is complete.

To solve this problem, we'll conduct a long division of 325 by 14 step by step:

  • Step 1: Determine how many times 14 fits into the first one or two digits of 325.
  • Step 2: The first part of 325 we consider is 32 (as 14 is larger than 3). 14 fits into 32 two times because 14×2=2814 \times 2 = 28 and 14×3=4214 \times 3 = 42, which is too large. Write 2 as part of the quotient.
  • Step 3: Subtract 2828 from 3232 to get 44.
  • Step 4: Bring down the next digit of the dividend, which is 5, forming 45.
  • Step 5: Determine how many times 14 fits into 45. It fits three times, since 14×3=4214 \times 3 = 42 and 14×4=5614 \times 4 = 56 is too large. Write 3 as part of the quotient.
  • Step 6: Subtract 4242 from 4545 to get 33.
  • Step 7: There are no more digits to bring down from the dividend, so the remainder is 3.

The quotient of 325÷14325 \div 14 is 2323 with a remainder of 33.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 23 23 with a remainder of 33 .

  • Step 1: Set up the problem by writing 3240 under the division bracket and 16 outside.
  • Step 2: Determine how many times 16 goes into the leading number within the dividend.

Let's work through each step:

Step 1: Consider the first two digits of 3240, which is 32. Divide 32 by 16.

Step 2: 1616 goes into 3232 two times. Write 22 above the line as the first digit of the quotient.

Step 3: Multiply 22 by 1616 to get 3232, and subtract this from the current digit segment, which is 3232. We have no remainder yet, so bring down the next digit, which is 44.

Step 4: Now divide 4040 (after bringing down the next digit) by 1616. 1616 goes into 4040 two times as well. Write 22 as the next digit of the quotient.

Step 5: Multiply 22 by 1616 to get 3232, and subtract from the current digit segment, 4040. This gives a remainder of 88, and we bring down the last 00, which now makes 8080.

Step 6: 1616 goes into 8080 five times. Write 55 as the last digit of the quotient.

Step 7: Multiply 55 by 1616 to get 8080, subtract from 8080 to get a remainder of 00. Bring down the final 00, there is no digit remaining after this.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is that the quotient is 202 202 with a remainder of 8 8 , which matches choice 4.
