To evaluate the quotient 513÷19 using the area model:
• The first thing Stefon did is to pick an easy multiple (x 10) of 19.
,
• Next, the result is subtracted from 513 to get 323.
,
• This is repeated to get a remainder, 133.
,
• Since 133 is less than (10 x 19 =190), Stephon then used a lower multiple of 19, which is 7.
,
• He subtracted the result and got a remainder of 0.
Finally, he added all the multipliers of 19.
Thus, showing that the quotient 513÷19 is 27.
