Question

when amy us doing he homework, she writes the divisor 76 as 67 by accident, and the result is a quotient of 15 and a reminder of 5. what is the correct quotient?

Answer 1

Answer:

  13 r 22

Step-by-step explanation:

The dividend of Amy's division problem is d such that ...

  d/67 = 15 +5/67

Multiplying by 67, we get ...

  d = 15(67) +5 = 1010

When this is divided by 76, the result is ...

  1010/76 = 13 22/76

The correct quotient is 13 remainder 22.
