Question

Make a estimate then divide using partial-quotients division write your remainder as a fraction

Answer 1

We can make an estimate for the given division by rounding the dividend to the nearest hundred and the divisor to the nearest ten.

We obtain:

`812/17\cong800/20=40`

Now, using partial-quotients division, we obtain:

17 ) 812

-170 +10 because 10*17=170

642

-170 +10

472

-170 +10

302

-170 +10

132
