To check the answer of a division problem, you can multiply the quotient (the result of the division) by the divisor (the number you divided by) and add the remainder (if any) to the product. The result should equal the dividend (the number you divided into). This process ensures that the division was done correctly and that the answer is accurate.

You multiply the quotient and the divisor. If the result is the dividend in the division question, then the answer is correct.

Multiply your answer by the divisor and see if you get the dividend.
