Answer:

4890

Explanation:

Recognize the denominator has been multiplied by 100:

0.03 × 100 = 3

To have the same division problem, the numerator must also be multiplied by 100. This is the sort of decimal point adjustment usually carried out for long division: the divisor is made to be an integer, and the decimal point of the dividend is moved the same direction by the same number of places.


(48.9)/(0.03)=(48.9\cdot 100)/(0.03\cdot 100)=(4890)/(3)

The missing number is 4890.

____

The quotient is 1630.
