If you multiply the divisor by the quotient you should get the original number. For example, if I want to check 10/2 =5. I multiply the divisor 2 by the quotient 5 and check to see if it gives me back my original number, 10. 2*5 =10 so 5 was the correct quotient. Alternatively if you divide the original number by the quotient you should get the divisor. In the above example, that would be 10/5=2.
Multiply the quotient (answer) by the divisor (the number outside the box) and your answer should be the dividend (the number inside the box).
if you can divide whole numbers, turn the fraction into a whole number by finding its equivalent and replacing the fraction with that equivalent. Then divide the new number which should be whole and you have your answer.
Multiply the answer (quotient) by the divisor. You should get the dividend.

you use multiply the divisor times the quotient & it should equal the dividend.
To find the number you should multiply -5 by to get 8 as the answer, you would divide 8 by -5. This calculation results in -1.6. Therefore, you should multiply -5 by -1.6 to get 8 as the answer.
Well the best answer is you should multiply not divide
To divide a single digit number by a double digit number,you first have to understand its obviously isn't easy. The following should help: *Put a zero on the area of the quotient and add a decimal point next to it. * After doing this,divide as if both numbers were two digit numbers and proceed You should get the answer.
You can add, subtract, multiply, or divide both sides of the equation or inequality by the same number. Don't multiply or divide by zero. In the case of an inequality, if you multiply or divide by a negative number, the sign of the inequality must be reversed. E.g., if you multiply both sides by -2, a "less-than" sign should be replaced by a "greater-than" sign.
To check the answer of a division problem, you can multiply the quotient (the result of the division) by the divisor (the number you divided by) and add the remainder (if any) to the product. The result should equal the dividend (the number you divided into). This process ensures that the division was done correctly and that the answer is accurate.
The easiest way, is to divide. There is no easier way from long division. First you have to divide, then you have to multiply, then subtract, then restart all over. Your dividend should be inside the box. Your divider should be outside. The quotient goes above the box as your answer. Your work goes below the box.
