Step-by-step explanation:

Question:

What is 8,743 divided by 4?

Step-by-step explanation:

Heya, I heard you need help! Well, let me explain for ya! c:

Step 1: Divide.

- First, you would write down the division problem using long division, let me show you how:

1. Write it down in long division form.

2. 4 can go into 8 2 times, so subtract that by 8 to get a difference of 0.

3. Subtract 8 by 8 and get a difference of 0.

4. 4 cannot go into 0, so bring down the 7.

5. 4 goes into 7 1 time, so you would subtract 7 by 4 to get a difference of 3.

6. 4 cannot go into 3, so bring down the 4.

7. 4 goes into 34 8 times, so you would subtract 34 by 32 to get a difference of 2.

8. 4 does not go into 2, so bring down the 3.

9. 4 goes into 23 5 times, so you subtract 23 by 20 to get a difference of 3.

10. 4 does not go into 3, so you bring down an imaginary 0 and add a decimal on the left of the 3 in 8743.

11. 4 goes into 30 7 times as 7 times 4 is 28, so subtract 30 by 28 to get a difference of 2.

12. Finally, you bring down another 0 as 4 cannot go into 2. Then, you subtract 20 by 20 to get 0.

- Your quotient is 2185.75.

Step 2: Converting to a mixed number.

- This is the easiest part. All you have to do is convert 75/100 into simplest form as 75/100 is the decimal in fraction form. This will get you 3/4.

- Then, you would write 2185
(3)/(4).

Therefore, your answer is 2185
(3)/(4)

Also, sorry about that book for a math problem.

Hope that helped! If you have anymore questions, just comment down and I will try my best to help you! Au revoir!
