4 pizzas can be bought with $ 60. The quotient and remainder are 4 and 4 respectively

Solution:

Given that pizzas cost $ 14 dollars each

To find: Number of pizzas bought with $ 60

Number of pizzas bought with $ 60 =
(60)/(14) = 4.2875

So 4 pizzas can be bought with $ 60

To find the quotient and remainder:

Here dividend = 60 and divisor = 14


\text { Dividend }=\text { Divisor } * \text { Quotient }+\text { Remainder }


60=14 * \text { Quotient }+\text { Remainder }

The above equation can be solved by putting

Quotient = 4 and Remainder = 4

Hence, quotient and remainder are 4 and 4 respectively
