The quotient is the answer obtained when we divide one number by another. For example, if we divide the number 6 by 3, we get the result as 2, which is the quotient.

We are to find the quotient when 71,760 is divided by 100. We can evaluate the answer by dividing:


71760/100

When a number is divided by 100, the quotient is the number made by the digits, except the digits at one's and ten's places. The number formed by ten's and one's digit of the dividend number is the remainder.

Therefore, the whole number part of the division will be717 and 60 is the remainder.

Hence, the quotient is:


\Rightarrow717.6000
