Step-by-Step Solution

First, let's perform the division of 7208 by 6 step-by-step using long division.

  1. Divide the first digit of the dividend 7 by 6. The quotient is 1.
  2. Multiply 1 by 6 to get 6, and subtract this from 7 to get a remainder of 1.
  3. Bring down the next digit of the dividend, 2, to make it 12.
  4. Divide 12 by 6. The quotient is 2.
  5. Multiply 2 by 6 to get 12, and subtract from 12 to get a remainder of 0.
  6. Bring down the next digit, 0, to make it 0.
  7. Divide 0 by 6. The quotient is 0. Multiply 0 by 6 to get 0.
  8. Bring down the next digit, 8, making it 8.
  9. Divide 8 by 6. The quotient is 1.
  10. Multiply 1 by 6 to get 6, and subtract from 8 to get a remainder of 2.

After performing long division, the quotient of 7208 divided by 6 is 1201 1201 with a remainder of 2.

Therefore, the answer is 1201 1201 with a remainder of 2.

Answer

1201 1201 with a remainder of 2
