If 283 is divided by 4, where should the first digit of the quotient be placed?

Asked by jamiroxx1

Answer (3)

First thing up, are there any fours in two? Obviously there are none. So, we would have to see if there are any fours in twenty-eight. There are seven fours in twenty-eight. Therefore, the first digit of the quotient is 7.

When dividing 283 by 4, the first digit of the quotient is 7. This digit is placed in the tens position of the final quotient. Therefore, the answer to the division can be formed as 70 with a remainder of 3.
