Question

What is one thousand five hundred divided by five equal

Answer 1

Answer: 300

We know that 5×3=15. Since we are trying to get 1500 we Multiply 300×5 and get 1500.

How do we know?

• As you can see if you cross out 2 of the 0 in 300 you have 3×5. When you multiply it you get 15.
• Also if you cross out 1 of the 0 in 300 you have 30×5. When you multiply that you get 150.

As you see when you still multiply either of those problems you have 15 in it. So we should know 300×5=1500.

Note: We can also multiply 500×3 and get 1500. You still get the same answer but just switched numbers.

Answer 2

`300`

Explanation:

`(1500)/(5) = 300`

It's very easy to find if you use a calculator.

To know whether that the answer is correct or wrong you can do like this.

`300 * 5 = 1500`

hope this helps

thanks.
