Question

what is the quotient of: 1,824 ÷12 = ?

Explanation:

Step1: Divide 1824 by 12

We can perform the long division or use the division algorithm. Let's do long division: 12 goes into 18 once (1×12 = 12), subtract 12 from 18 to get 6. Bring down the 2 to make 62. 12 goes into 62 five times (5×12 = 60), subtract 60 from 62 to get 2. Bring down the 4 to make 24. 12 goes into 24 exactly 2 times (2×12 = 24). So adding up the quotients: 1 (hundreds place), 5 (tens place), 2 (ones place) gives 152.

Step2: Verify

Check by multiplying the quotient (152) by the divisor (12): \(152\times12 = (150\times12)+(2\times12)=1800 + 24 = 1824\), which matches the dividend.

Answer:

152
