Question

1872÷12 partial product

Answer 1

To divide 1872 by 12 using partial products, you separate 1872 into 1800 and 72, then divide each by 12 to get partial quotients which are added together, resulting in the final answer of 156.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for the division of 1872 by 12 using the partial product method, which is a part of mathematics in the curriculum for middle school students. To find the solution using partial products, you break down one of the numbers and multiply it by the other number in parts, then add up the products.

Let's divide 1872 by 12:

1. Divide 1800 (which is 12 x 150) by 12, yielding 150 as a partial quotient.
2. Divide the remaining 72 (which is 12 x 6) by 12, yielding 6 as another partial quotient.
3. Add both partial quotients: 150 + 6 = 156. So, 1872 divided by 12 equals 156.
