Question

9722

Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Solve
00:03 Let's start by dividing the leftmost digit by the divisor
00:08 7 is less than 9, so we'll add the next digit, then divide
00:14 Write the result above, pay attention to the position
00:18 Now multiply the result by the divisor
00:23 Subtract the product from the number
00:30 Now bring down the next digit and use the same steps
00:34 Divide
00:38 Write the result without remainder above, pay attention to the position
00:41 Multiply the result and subtract
00:45 We got a remainder of 2
00:50 And this is the solution to the problem

Step-by-Step Solution

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

  • Step 1: Use long division to divide 722 by 9.

  • Step 2: Calculate the quotient and remainder during division.

  • Step 3: Verify against the given multiple-choice options.

Now, let's work through each step:

Step 1: Begin with the long division of 722 by 9.

Step 2: Breakdown the division:
- 9 goes into 72 eight times (because 9×8=729 \times 8 = 72). - Subtract 7272 from 7272, leaving 00.
- Bring down the next digit 22.
- 9 goes into 2 zero times.
- This gives a quotient of 8080 and a remainder of 22, since 80×9+2=72280 \times 9 + 2 = 722.

Step 3: Verify with choices:
- Compare the quotient 8080 and remainder 22 against the options provided.
- The correct choice is: 8080 with a remainder of 22.

Thus, the answer is that 99 goes into 722722, leaving a quotient of 80\mathbf{80} and a remainder of 2\mathbf{2}.

Answer

80 80 with a remainder of 2
