Can you divide 45 by 6?

Answer 1

The answer is 7 r 3 or 7 1/2.

To do this by hand, you need to know your multiplication tables or else be able

to figure them out :

We know that 7 times 6 is 42 which is less than 45, but 8 times 6 is 48 which is more than

45. So, we know that 6 goes into 46 7 times with a remainder of 3. ( 45-42 = 3)

This remainder can also be expressed as the fraction 3/6 or 1/2.
