Answer:Well you can divide 646 by 3 which will give you 215 r 1. Then multiply 215 by 3 plus 1 and you will get 646. So your expression should be n times 3 + r=646

Answer:

The expression is (
3 × 215) + 1 = 646

Step-by-step explanation:

Thinking process:

The answer to this problem is
(646)/(3) =215 (1)/(3)

To check the quotient, simply multiply the denominator of the reminder by the whole number like this:

3 × 215 = 645

Then afterward, add the numerator like this (645 + 1) = 646

The general expression for
a(x)/(y) is given as
a*x+ (y)

This checks the numerator, in this case, 646
