Answer:

B.
9(4)/(9)

Explanation:

We are asked to find the quotient of 85 and 9 as a mixed number.


85/ 9

We know that 9 times 9 is equal to 81.

9)85(9

81

4

Now, we will find the remainder by subtracting 81 from 85 as:


85-81=4

Therefore, the quotient would be
9(4)/(9) and option B is the correct choice.
