Answer:

No, quotients don't have always the same number of digits when dividing 3 digit numbers by 1 digit numbers.

Explanation:

See the following examples:

3 digit number: 100

1 digit number: 2

quotient: 100/2 = 50, which has 2 digits

3 digit number: 300

1 digit number: 2

quotient: 300/2 = 150, which has 3 digits
