What happens to the quotient when the dividend and divisor are mutiplied by the same number?
As long as the number is not zero, the quotient remains unchanged. If the multiplier is zero then the quotient is undefined.
Why even divided by odd equal even?
Odd numbers do NOT have a factor of 2. When an Even number is divided by an Odd number with no remainder, the prime factors of the divisor cancel out the prime factors of the dividend, but there will be no prime 2 to cancel the prime factor of 2 in the dividend leaving the the quotient to have a factor of 2, and so will be Even. --------------------------------------------------------- Alternatively, consider what happens when you multiply Odd and Even numbers: Odd × Odd = Odd Odd × Even = Even Even × Even = Even The result is Even ONLY if at least one of the numbers multiplied together is Even. Thus if you divide an Even number by an Odd number, the result must be Even. Also consider that Odd times Odd is Odd. Multiplication is the inverse of division, so if you have: dividend ÷ divisor = quotient then dividend = quotient × divisor Now, if the divisor is Odd and the quotient is Odd, the the Dividend MUST be Odd (since Odd × Odd = Odd). Thus if the Dividend is Even and the Divisor is Odd, then the Quotient must be Even.
What happens to the fraction as the denominator decreases?

What happens to the fringe width if the thickness of the material is increased in air wedge?
decreases
What is the quotient of 14 and the sum of -3 and -4?
Do you truly think that this is easier? What happens if you get it wrong? Think about that.... cheater.
What happens to the quotient if both dividend and divisor are increase 10 times?
Nothing.
What happens to the remainder part of the quotient as the dividend increases by 1?
it decreases
What happens to the quotient when the dividend and divisor are mutiplied by the same number?
As long as the number is not zero, the quotient remains unchanged. If the multiplier is zero then the quotient is undefined.
What happens to the decimal point in the quotient when the dividend is increased 1000 times but the divisor remains unchanged?
The decimal point moves 3 places to the right.

What happens to the quotient as the divisor gets larger?
It gets smaller.

What is a Java program that finds the greatest common factor of two integers?
The easiest way to find the greatest common denominator of two integers with a computer program is to use the Euclidean algorithm. Of the most popular methods of finding the GCD of two numbers, the Euclidean algorithm does it with the least amount of work and requires the least amount of code.In order to understand the Euclidean algorithm, you'll need to know a few division terms:The dividend is the number to be divided.The divisor is the number being divided by.The quotient is the number of times the divisor divides into the dividend.The remainder is the amount "left over" when the divisor cannot go into the dividend an integral number of times.18A divided by 12B gives a quotient of 1C and a remainder of 6D. A is the dividend, B is the divisor, C is the quotient, and D is the remainder.The Euclidean algorithm works like this:Check if either of the two integers is 0. If so, there is no solution (Ø), as a number cannot share a GCD with zero. Besides, division by zero is a big no-no.Check if either of the two integers is 1. If so, 1 is the GCD.Divide the larger of the two integers by the smaller.Divide the divisor of the previous division operation by the remainder of the previous operation.Repeat step four until the remainder equals zero. When the remainder equals zero, the divisor of the last operation is the GCD.If you still don't get it, try looking at the Euclidean algorithm in action:Find the GCD of 84 and 18.Check to see if either 84 or 18 is equal to 0. Nope. Continue on...Check to see if either 84 or 18 is equal to 1. Nope. Continue on...Since 84 is larger than 18, divide 84 by 18. Quotient is 4, remainder is 12.Take the divisor of the last operation (18) and divide it by the remainder of the last operation (12). Quotient is 1, remainder is 6.Take the divisor of the last operation (12) and divide it by the remainder of the last operation (6). Quotient is 2, remainder is 0.When the remainder is 0, the divisor of the last operation is the GCD. So the GCD in this case is 6.You should now have a good grasp of how the Euclidean algorithm works. Now we need to turn it into code. We'll need three variables, all of them integers:int divisor, dividend, remainder;The purpose of the variables is self-explanatory. Next, we need to make a few decisions. We need to decide if the dividend or the divisor is 0. If that test is passed, then we need to decide if the dividend or the divisor is 1. If that test is passed, then we need make sure that dividend is larger than divisor.if(dividend 1) {printf("The GCD is 1.\n");}// Make sure the dividend is greater than the divisor.if(divisor > dividend) {remainder = dividend;dividend = divisor;divisor = remainder;}// Calculate the GCD.while(remainder != 0) {remainder = dividend % divisor;dividend = divisor;divisor = remainder;}// Display the answer to the user.printf("The GCD is %i.\n", dividend);}And the GCD lived happily ever after. The end.
