What is 6,482 divided by 7 = ?
Please explain.


Sagot :

926, 7 goes into 64  which is how you get the 9 you have 1 lef and bring down the 8 which is what gets you to 18 7 goeis into 18 twice which is where you get the two and then you have 12 which is where you get the two form which equals 6,482
With division, you are essentially looking for how many groups of the divisor (in this case 7) fit into the numerator (in this case 6482)

6482 / 7 = 926

Long division style:
7 does not fit into 2
7 fits into 82 11 times, with a remainder of 5
7 fits into 405 57 times, with a remainder of 6
7 fits into 6006 858 times
11+57+858=926

So, you can easily reverse the process, finding how many groups of 7 it takes to get the larger number. You know that since the 7000 and more than 700 that your solution must be between 101 and 999, trial and error from there. Since it is closer to 7000, try higher numbers, trial and error.
