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.
The tenths place in decimals is the first digit to the right of the decimal point. For example, 15.2 is fifteen and two tenths.
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.

Yes, that's true.

You can use estimation and place value to help you figure out where to place the first digit.
Estimating will give an indication of the order of magnitude of the answer. The decimal point determines the order of magnitude.
An estimation, like 600 divided by 6, will show you that the answer should be around 100, not 10 or 1000.
If you have no clue about how decimals work then getting an estimate for the answer gives you an order of magnitude which can help in placing the decimal. But if you are even a bit clued up, estimating will not be necessary.
by rounding 624 down to 600, you know that 600 divided by 6 is 100, so the first digit will probably be a 1
b/c by rounding 624 down to 600, you know that 600 divided by 6 is 100, so the first digit will probably be a 1
If you mean 18.88 divided by 4 then the quotient is 4.72 and the first digit of 4 is in the ones or units place
It does not have to be. 864/2 = 432. The first digit of the quotient is not in the tens place.
The tenth place because the quotient is .682 and the six is in the tens place which represents 6/10.
Well, honey, when you're dividing 3972 by 41, you know that the first digit of the quotient will be in the tens place because 41 doesn't go into 39. So, you move to the next digit, which is 3. 41 goes into 39 zero times, so you bring down the 7. Then, you see that 41 goes into 72 once, which gives you 9 as the first digit in the quotient. Voila!
