Hello!

3,486 / 2 = n

n = 1743

work:

you simply divide 3,486 by 2

if you divide each number by two (right to left)

6 / 2 = 3

8 / 2 = 4

4 / 2 = 2

3 / 2 = 1.5

since there is a decimal in this, multiply it by 10 and add it to the number before. this number will go on the right side of the total

1.5 * 10 =15

15 + 2 = 17

17 4 3 are the final numbers in order. put them together and you have 1743

(this is my personal way of doing it, but there are plenty more ways to do it)

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
