Question

flash cards: division with remainder
question 2 of 15
59 ÷ 9 =

Explanation:

Step1: Recall division - remainder concept

We know that \(a\div b = q\cdots r\), where \(a = 59\), \(b = 9\). We find the largest multiple of 9 less than 59.

Step2: Calculate quotient

\(9\times6=54\), so the quotient \(q = 6\).

Step3: Calculate remainder

\(59-54 = 5\), so the remainder \(r = 5\).

Answer:

\(6\cdots5\)
