Question

292 divided by 5. give the quotient and remainder

Answer 1

292 ÷ 5 = 58 2/5 = 58.4

Answer 2

Quotient = 54.4

Remainder = 0

Explanation:

We are asked to divide 292 by 5 and give the quotient and the remainder.

Writing it in a fraction form to get:

`\frac {292} {5}`

Since the numerator is an even number and the denominator is an odd number so we will look for the greatest possible multiple of 5, to divide this numerator, which is 290. It will give us 54.

The remaining
`(2)/(5)` will add to 54 as it is.

So the remainder = 0 and the quotient = 54.4.
