Question

Hi hope you are doing fineI have a question what is 6,114 divded by 63 hand method form no calculator. and no decimals . and what us the remainderin simpler terms 6,144/63 and what's the remainder if any.

Answer 1

$\frac{6.114}{63}$

Use the following method:

Multuply the decimal by:

$6.114\cdot1\times10^n$

Where n is the number of decimals, so:

$6.114\cdot1\times10^3=6.114\cdot1000=6114$

Multiply the divisor by the previous number too:

$63\cdot1000=63000$

So, the GCF of 6114 and 63000 is 6, therefore:

$\frac{6114}{63000}=\frac{\frac{6114}{6}}{\frac{63000}{6}}=\frac{1019}{10500}$
