Question

Solve the following division:

93:3= 93:3=

Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Solve
00:03 Let's use the distributive law
00:07 Let's break down 93 into 3 plus 90
00:10 Divide each factor in parentheses by the outer factor, then sum
00:13 Calculate each division separately and then sum
00:16 And this is the solution to the question

Step-by-Step Solution

Apply the distributive property of division and proceed to split the number 93 into the sum of 90 and 3. This ultimately simplifies the division operation allowing us to solve the exercise without a calculator

Reminder - The distributive property of division actually allows us to split the larger term in the division problem into a sum or difference of smaller numbers, which makes the division operation easier and allows us to solve the exercise without a calculator

(90+3):3= (90+3):3=

Apply the formula of the distributive property (a+b):c=a:c+b:c (a+b):c=a:c+b:c

(90:3)+(3:3)= (90:3)+(3:3)=

Continue to solve the problem according to the order of operations

30+1=31 30+1=31

Therefore the answer is option C - 31.

Shown below are the various steps of our solution:

93:3=(90+3):3=90:3+3:3=30+1=31 93:3=(90+3):3=90:3+3:3=30+1=31

Answer

31 31
