How can you tell before you divide 18.88 by 4 that the first digit of the quotient is in the ones place?
4 x 1 = 4 (4 / 1 = 4) 4 x 10 = 40 (40 / 4 = 10) Since 18.88 is between 4 and 40, you can conclude that the quotient must be between 1 and 10.
What is the tenths place?

How many ways can nine skiers finish in first second and third place?
The first-place finisher can be any one of the 9 skiers. For each of these choices, the second-place finisher can be any one of the remaining 8 skiers. For each of these choices, the third-place finisher can be any one of the remaining 7 skiers. So there are (9 x 8 x 7) = 504 ways in which the first, second, and third places can be comprised of members of the group of nine skiers.
