To find the quotation 54 divided by 3 equals, you could use the following equations which use multiplication and distributive properties.
54/3=18
54=2*3*3*33x=54
54=6*9 3(18)=54
54=54, This is how you can solve it, 3*3*2=18
or just divide without using properties.

Multiplication and distributive property to find the quotation 54 divided by 3 equals

Using multiplication we need find out

3 * what number = 54

Distributive property is a(b+c) = ab + ac

Break the product 54 into smaller numbers that are multiplies of the divisor 3

30 + 24 = 54

Use multiple of 10 for 30 . 30 can be written as 3*10 and 24 can be written as 3 * 8

(3*10) + (3*8) = 54

Take out 3 in common

3 (10 + 8) = 54 (Distributive property)

3 times 18 = 54 (multiplication property)

Unknow number is 18

So 54 divide by 3 = 18

Quotient is 18
