What is the divisor when the dividend is 53 and the quotient is 5 with a remainder of 8?
The divisor is 9. quotient x divisor + remainder = dividend ⇒ quotient x divisor = dividend - remainder ⇒ divisor = (dividend - remainder) ÷ quotient = (53 - 8) ÷ 5 = 45 ÷ 5 = 9
If a division problem has divisor of 9 what is the greatest possible remainder?
8 is the greatest possible whole number remainder, eg seventeen divided by nine...
When dividing a 3 digit number by a 1 digit number for what divisors can you get a remainder 8?
Regardless of the dividend (the number being divided), no divisor can produce a remainder equal to, or greater than, itself..... dividing by 4 cannot result in a remainder of 5, for example, Therefore the only single-digit number which can return a remainder of 8 is 9. 35 ÷ 9 = 3 and remainder 8
Write 21 7 as a mixed number?
21/7 so you will divide 7 into 21; 7/21= 3 the quotient is 3, the remainder is 0, the divisor is 7; answer is ...3 0/7 If the question was write 8/5 as a mixed number you would divide 5 into 8. 5 is the divisor, 1 is the quotient, 3 is the remainder. The answer to that is 1 3/5. Remainder Quotient Divisor 1 3/5.
What least number should be subtracted from 9660 so that the remainder is exactly divisible by 76?
Dividend-remainder=divisor *quotient 9660/76 gives 127 quotient and 8 remainder 9660-8=76*127 9652 so 8 must be subracted from 9660 ans is 8
