It will probably depend on the dividend (the number to be divided)

Why are remainders important in division problems?

remainders are important because you have to know what to do with it .whether or not you have to add an additional something or whatever. for example say Jill has 13 bananas. she is going to make smoothies for her and her friend how many bananas does each person receive? 13 divided by 2 =6 r1 or if you do not want a remainder then each person would get 6 1/2 bananas.


How many tens are in 4800?

480 of them, of course! dividing by 10 drop one zero off the number being divided


What is 500 x 0?

When you are multiplying, you are stating how many times the number is stated. Here, it is stated as "0" times, therefore the answer is "0." Any number multiplied by 0 or divided into/by 0, the answer will always be 0. 500x0=0


Simplify the expression 3xy plus 5xy by combining as many terms as possible?

There are only the two terms, so 8xy


What is Infinity divided by Infinity?

It is indeterminate. There are many other inderterminate forms. It is not at all the same as 3/3 for example. You can see this with limits and some calculus rules. You must apply the L'Hospital theorem by deriving the numerator and the denominator of the equation that gave you infinity over infinity.-----------------Why ∞/∞ is not 1One could think that ∞/∞ = 1, but this is wrong.The answer depends on the kind of infinity: in fact, there are different kinds of infinity.For example, consider f(x) = x2 and g(x) = x. In the limit x→∞ of the function f(x)/g(x), we havelimx→∞ f(x)/g(x) = limx→∞ x2/x = limx→∞ x = ∞;so, both f(x) and g(x), in that limit, equal infinity, but f(x)/g(x) ≠ 1. If we have f(x) = 2x and g(x) = x, both f(x) and g(x) equal infinity (for x→∞), butlimx→∞ f(x)/g(x) = limx→∞ 2x/x = limx→∞ 2 = 2 ≠ 1.So you see that infinity is something to check everytime!--------------Addition: Since infinity is not a set number, you cannot assume that infinity divided by infinity would equal one. Infinity is an indeterminate number.1To touch on this whatever you take and divide by the same number will always give you one.2Infinity divided by infinity is not equal to 1, But it is undefined, not another infinity. This would help you:First, I am going to define this axiom (assumption) that infinity divided by infinity is equal to one:∞-∞= 1Since ∞ = ∞ + ∞, then we are going to substitute the first infinity in our axiom:∞ + ∞---∞= 1The next step is to split this fraction into two fractions:∞-∞+ ∞-∞= 1Next, substitute the axiom twice into the equation, we get:1 + 1 = 1Finally, this can be rewritten as:2 = 1Therefore, infinity divided by infinity is NOT equal to one. Instead we can get any real number to equal to one when we assume infinity divided by infinity is equal to one, so infinity divided by infinity is undefined.

How many remainders are possible when a whole number is divided by 20?

20 possible remainders.


How many are possible nonzero remainders by 3?

There are two possible nonzero remainders when dividing a number by 3: 1 and 2. Any nonzero integer can be divided by 3 resulting in either a remainder of 1 or 2.


How many possible remainders are there if 4 is the divisor?

Only 3 non-zero remainders.1, 2, and 3 are the only possible non-zero remainders since any number greater than or equal to the divisor could also be divided, to result in a new quotient. A remainder of zero, means that the dividend is divisible by the divisor (the divisor is a factor of the number)


How many possible remainders are there when 8 is the divisor?

If the dividend is a multiple of 8 then there will be no remainders in the quotient otherwise the possible remainders are limitless

How many possible remainder are there if you divide a number by 5?

In division by 5, you can have remainders of 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4. If you count zero, then you can have five possible remainders. If you are not counting zero, then 4 possible remainders.
