the Remainder is divided by the outside number to form another decimal, which is added onto the end of the answer.
you put that number as your remainder
When dividing 13 by 10, 1 is the quotient and 3 is the remainder
If you are making use of long division method, the process of dividing a whole number is actually a subset of the process of dividing the decimals. While dividing both you may get a quotient with decimal places. Some exceptions to this do exist in case of whole numbers. Like when you are dividing 100 by 2, the quotient 50 has no decimal places.
The Quotient
The quotient.
because you can always add a 0 when using decimals
By the time you advance to the point of dividing decimals, you don't use remainders any more.
add a zero to the end (only if it'safter the decimal) and continue dividing
in dividing decimals you never get a remainder and in dividing whole numbers you do. +++ More to the point perhaps, you are working in powers of 10 all the time.
Yes.
To convert the decimal number 219 to base 5, we divide the number by 5 and record the remainders. Dividing 219 by 5 gives a quotient of 43 and a remainder of 4. Dividing 43 by 5 gives a quotient of 8 and a remainder of 3. Finally, dividing 8 by 5 gives a quotient of 1 and a remainder of 3, and dividing 1 by 5 gives a quotient of 0 and a remainder of 1. Reading the remainders from bottom to top, the base 5 representation of 219 is 1334.
When 25 is divided by 9, the quotient is 2 with a remainder of 7. This can be calculated by dividing 25 by 9, which equals 2 with a remainder of 7. The quotient represents the whole number of times 9 can be divided into 25, and the remainder is what is left over after dividing as many whole times as possible.
