The number = [tex]\boxed{\bold{256}}[/tex]
Further explanation
The division operation is one of the basic arithmetic operations
Common signs used are [tex]\large{\boxed{:}}}[/tex] or [tex]\large{\boxed{\slash}}[/tex]
The division is written by placing the numerator above the denominator with a horizontal line between them or use a slash with the numerator's position and the denominator is parallel
The division is actually an iterative subtraction operation (as many as the number of divisors)
Division is the opposite of multiplying
The general form of division can be stated by:
[tex]\large{\boxed{\bold{divident:divisor=quotient+remainder}}[/tex]
example:
7: 3 = 2 + 1
- 7 = dividend
- 3 = divisor
- 2 = quotient
- 1 = remainder
Division operation statement:
"7 divided by 3 equals 2 remainder 1
The form of division can also be expressed in terms of fractions
In the number above, the form of fraction obtained is the form of mixed fractions
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{7}{3} =2\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Mixed fractions consist of whole number and proper fractions
From the task
a number divided by 40 has a quotient of 6 with a remainder of 16.
we translate this sentence into division operation, :
x(number) : 40 = 6 + 16
We can solve this with 2 way :
- 1. find the number by multiplying
divident = divisor x quotient + remainder
divident = 40 x 6 + 16
divident = [tex]\boxed{\bold{256}}[/tex]
⇒quotient as whole number
⇒remainder as numerator
⇒divisor as denominator
the form of mixed fraction is :
[tex]\displaystyle =\:6\frac{16}{40}[/tex]
divident = whole number x denominator + numerator
divident = 6 x 40 + 16
divident = 256
