How can you tell before you divide 387 by 4 that the first digit of the answer is in the tens place?

The value is less that 400, so dividing by 4 is going to give a value less than 100. It is also more than 40, so the value is going to be greater than 10. Taking those two facts we know the value must start in the tens place.

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.
How does estimating before you divide 624 divided by 6 help you place the first digit in the quotient?

How can you tel before you divide 425 by 9 that the first digit of the quotient is in the tens place?
Because 4 is less than 9. There is no way for it to divide evenly and that's to divide by 9. Think about it. The only way to get a number in the thousands place is to have a 9 as the first number (assuming it's still a three digit number)
How you can tell before you divide 425 by 9 that the first digit of the quotient is in the ten place?
425 is less than 100*9 = 900 so the first digit of the quotient cannot be in the hundreds (or higher) place. 425 is greater than (or equal to) 10*9 = 90 so the first digit of the quotient cannot be in the units (or lower) place. That only leaves the tens place.

well....I don't know much....so i will think of it later.... SORRY

In what place is the first digit of the quotient for 18.88 and divide 4?
18.88/4 = 4.72 and the first digit is in the ones place

How can you tell before you divide 3972 by 41 that the first digit of the quotient is in the tens place?
41)3972...since 41>39 you won't have the first digit of the quotient in the hundreds place. it will be in the tens place instead. if the first two digits were 41 or greater then you would. hope that helps.
How you can tell before you divide 425 by 9 that the first digit of the quotient is in the ten place?
425 is less than 100*9 = 900 so the first digit of the quotient cannot be in the hundreds (or higher) place. 425 is greater than (or equal to) 10*9 = 90 so the first digit of the quotient cannot be in the units (or lower) place. That only leaves the tens place.
Where place should you write the first digit of the quotient 4085 and divide 61?
66.9672
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

In which place would you write the first digit of the quotient for 2.682 divide by 4?
0.6705
How can you tell before you divide 425 by 9 that the first digit of the quotient is in the tens place?
Because the hundreds digit is less than 9, there will be no hundreds digit. There are 42 tens*, which is more than 9, so there will be a 10's digit in the answer. *(40 tens from 400, plus the 2 from the tens digit)
