∙ 11y agoAn estimation, like 600 divided by 6, will show you that the answer should be around 100, not 10 or 1000.

Mental math like if 12 into 72 it will not be a double digit if you divide 100 by 10 it will be double digits. Most times if you have a tripple digit number and divide it by double digit the answer will be a double digit.
You can use estimation and place value to help you figure out where to place the first digit.

500. The smallest 3 digit quotient is 100, so 5 x 100 = 500.
You can't tell anything about the quotient until you know whatthe divisor is going to be.-- If I divide your 4,796 by 4, the quotient is 1,199 . . . 4 digits.-- And if I divide it by 2,398, the quotient is 2 . . . . only 1 digit.

0.5416 The 6 is overlined.
425 is less than 100*9 = 900 so the first digit of the quotient cannot be in the hundreds (or higher) place. 425 is greater than (or equal to) 10*9 = 90 so the first digit of the quotient cannot be in the units (or lower) place. That only leaves the tens place.

41)3972...since 41>39 you won't have the first digit of the quotient in the hundreds place. it will be in the tens place instead. if the first two digits were 41 or greater then you would. hope that helps.
