How does estimating before you divide 624 divided by 6 help you place the first digit in the quotient?
104
Explain why estimating before you divide helps you place the first digit in the quotient?
You can use estimation and place value to help you figure out where to place the first digit.
What is the divisor and which is the dividend in the problem 7 divided by 9?
0.7778
Why estimating before you divide 624 divided by 6 helps you place the first digit in the quotient?
An estimation, like 600 divided by 6, will show you that the answer should be around 100, not 10 or 1000.
How do you convert 713 to a base 5 number?
Divide 713 by 5, and the remainder in that division is the Units (50) digit. Take the quotient (without the remainder) and divide by 5. The remainder in this division is the Fives (51) digit. Continue dividing until the quotient is less tan 5 and that digit will be the leftmost digit. 713/5 = 142 and rem 3 so 50 digit = 3 142/5 = 28 and rem 2 so 51 digit = 2 28/5 = 5 and rem 3 so 52 digit = 3 5/5 = 1 and rem 0 so 53 digit = 0 and last quotient, 1 < 5 so stop with leftmost digit = 1. Then 71310 = 103235
How do you know where to place the first digit of a quotient in a division problem?
To look at the numbers in the division problem
What are 2 digit quotients?
The quotient is the result of dividing two numbers. So a two digit quotient is simply an answer to a division problem that ends up being 2 digits. For instance, 100 divided by 10 give a two digit quotient of 10. Or 480 / 32, which gives a two digit quotient of 15.

Could you explain why estimating before you divide 624 by 6 helps you place the first digit in the quotient?
by rounding 624 down to 600, you know that 600 divided by 6 is 100, so the first digit will probably be a 1

Why dividing a three digit number by one digit number the first digit of the quotient is in the tens place?
It does not have to be. 864/2 = 432. The first digit of the quotient is not in the tens place.
Which is an estimate of 4?
There is usually little point in estimating a 1 digit number for multiplication or division. For addition, or subtraction, you could use 0.
If you have to round a quotient to the nearest hundredth what place do you need to divide?
You just continue to do the division, until you calculate the third digit after the decimal point. Then you round.
