Step-by-Step Solution

To find the solution to this division problem, we will use long division:

  • Step 1: Consider the first digit of 999, which is 9. Divide 9 by 4.
  • Step 2: The closest multiple of 4 that does not exceed 9 is 8 (since 4×2=84 \times 2 = 8). Thus, the first digit of our quotient is 2.
  • Step 3: Subtract 8 from 9, leaving a remainder of 1. Bring down the next digit from the dividend, which leaves us with 19.
  • Step 4: Divide 19 by 4. The closest multiple of 4 is 16 (4×4=164 \times 4 = 16). So, the next digit of the quotient is 4.
  • Step 5: Subtract 16 from 19, leaving a remainder of 3. Bring down the next digit from the dividend, giving us 39.
  • Step 6: Divide 39 by 4. The closest multiple is 36 (4×9=364 \times 9 = 36). Thus, the final digit of the quotient is 9.
  • Step 7: Subtract 36 from 39, providing a final remainder of 3.

Hence, the quotient is 249 249 , with a remainder of 3.

The correct answer to the problem is option 1: 249 249 Rest 3.

Let's go through the steps of long division:

  • Step 1: Divide the first digit of the dividend: 8÷5=1 8 \div 5 = 1 . The quotient so far is 1.
  • Step 2: Multiply 1 (quotient) by 5 (divisor) to get 5.
  • Step 3: Subtract 5 from 8 which gives a remainder of 3. Bring down the next digit (1) to make it 31.
  • Step 4: Divide 31 by 5. 31÷5=6 31 \div 5 = 6 remainder 1. The quotient now is 16.
  • Step 5: Multiply 6 (newest quotient digit) by 5 to get 30.
  • Step 6: Subtract 30 from 31 which leaves a remainder of 1. Bring down the last digit (6) of the original number to make it 16.
  • Step 7: Divide 16 by 5. 16÷5=3 16 \div 5 = 3 remainder 1. Add 3 to the quotient making it 163.
  • Step 8: Multiplying 3 by 5, we get 15.
  • Step 9: Subtract 15 from 16 to get a final remainder of 1.

This implies the complete division yields a quotient of 163 with a remainder of 1.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 163 163 with a remainder of 1.

Exercise #5

5974

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem using long division, follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Start with the first digit of the dividend.
  • The dividend is 974, and the divisor is 5.
    Take the first digit of the dividend, which is 9. Divide 9 by 5 to get 1 because 5 goes into 9 once.

  • Step 2: Subtract and bring down the next digit.
  • Multiply the divisor (5) by the quotient digit (1): 5×1=55 \times 1 = 5.
    Subtract this from 9 to get a remainder of 4: 95=49 - 5 = 4.
    Bring down the next digit from the dividend (7), making the new number 47.

  • Step 3: Repeat the division process.
  • Now divide 47 by 5. 5 goes into 47 nine times, so the next digit of the quotient is 9.
    Multiply the divisor (5) by this quotient digit (9): 5×9=455 \times 9 = 45.
    Subtract this from 47 to get a remainder of 2: 4745=247 - 45 = 2.
    Bring down the final digit (4), making the new number 24.

  • Step 4: Divide the last number.
  • Finally, divide 24 by 5. 5 goes into 24 four times. The last digit of the quotient is 4.
    Multiply the divisor (5) by 4: 5×4=205 \times 4 = 20.
    Subtract this from 24 to get a final remainder of 4: 2420=424 - 20 = 4.

Thus, the result of 974 divided by 5 is a quotient of 194194 with a remainder of 44.

The correct choice is therefore Choice 4: 194194 with a remainder of 44.

Answer

194 194 with a remainder of 4

Exercise #6

6617

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Set up the division of 617617 by 66.
  • Step 2: Perform the long division to find the quotient and remainder.

Now, let's work through each step:

Step 1: We start by setting up the division as follows: place 66 outside the division symbol and 617617 inside.

Step 2: Perform the division:

  • Divide the first digit 66 by 66, which gives 11. Thus, the first digit of the quotient is 11. Subtract 6×1=66 \times 1 = 6 from 66, resulting in 00. Bring down the next digit, which is 11, giving us 0101.
  • Since 66 does not divide into 11 (or 0101), we place a 00 in the quotient and bring down the next digit, 77, making it 1717.
  • Divide 1717 by 66, which gives 22 as the quotient digit. Subtract 6×2=126 \times 2 = 12 from 1717, resulting in 55.

The quotient is 102102 and the remainder is 55.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 102 102 with a remainder of 55.

First, examine how many times 6 fits into the digits of 878 from left to right.

  • Step 1: Determine how many times 6 fits into the first part of 878. 6 fits into 8 once. Below the 8, write 6, because 6×1=6 6 \times 1 = 6 .
  • Subtract 6 from 8, which gives a remainder of 2. Bring down the next digit, 7, making the number 27.
  • Step 2: Determine how many times 6 fits into 27. 6 fits into 27 four times. Below the 27, write 24, because 6×4=24 6 \times 4 = 24 .
  • Subtract 24 from 27, which gives a remainder of 3. Bring down the last digit, 8, making the number 38.
  • Step 3: Determine how many times 6 fits into 38. 6 fits into 38 six times. Below the 38, write 36, because 6×6=36 6 \times 6 = 36 .
  • Subtract 36 from 38, which gives a final remainder of 2.

Thus, the quotient is 146 with a remainder of 2.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 146 146 with a remainder of 2.
