The quotient is Round to the nearest tenth, and then correct answer is .
Example Question #261 : Numbers And Operations
Which number is divisble by with a remainder of ?
The trick here is recognize which number is divisible by six with no remainder. If you add the digits of an even number together, anytime that those digits equal a sum that is divisible by three, the number itself will be divisble by six with no remainder.
is even and divisible by . Any number whose digits add up to a number divisible by is divisible by . Here, , which is divisible by . Therefore, is dvisible by with no remainder.
To find a number that would have a remainder of when divided by , you would add to the number . This gives you .
Example Question #14 : How To Divide
Ron is drinking a vanilla ice blended beverage. It is 18 ounces. He finishes one third of it. How many ounces remain?
8 ounces
17 ounces
12 ounces
16 ounces
12 ounces
If Ron's drink is 18 ounces, one third is equal to 6 ounces. Because 18 minus 6 is 12, 12 ounces is the correct answer.
Example Question #263 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement
Which of the following numbers is divisible by 9 without a remainder?
A trick to help determine when a number is divisble by 9 without a remainder is to add the units together and see whether the sum of the units is divisible by 9.
For the number 63, . Given that 9 is divisible by 9 with no remainder, it is the correct answer.
Example Question #264 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement
Gerry is splitting a 16 ounce hamburger between himself and 3 friends. If he divides the hamburger equally, how many ounces does each friend get?
6 ounces
4 ounces
7 ounces
5.5 ounces
8 ounces
4 ounces
If Gerry is sharing the hamburger with 3 friends, that means that there are 4 people total who are sharing the 16 ounce hamburger. To determine how many ounces each person would get, 16 should be divided by 4.
Therefore, 4 ounces is the correct answer.
Example Question #265 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement
3 friends are sharing 12 cookies equally between them. How many cookies does each person get?

Given that there are 12 cookies and 3 friends, the number of cookies that each friend can have is the result of 12 divided by 3.
Each person would get 4 cookies.
Example Question #266 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement
Annette bought a television of $1,000, but can't afford to pay for it all at once. The most that she can pay each month is $50. How many months will it take her to pay off the television?

Example Question #267 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement
What is the remainder when 2411 is divided by 8?
No remainder
Use long division to solve.
8 goes into 24 three times with no remainder, so the first digit of the answer is 3.
8 goes into 1 zero times, so the next digit is zero. The 1 carries to amke the next division 8 into 11.
Finally, 8 goes into 11 once with a remainder of 3. This makes the last digit of the answer 1, with a remainder of 3.
Final answer:
The final remainder is 3.
Example Question #267 : Numbers And Operations
Which of the following is divisible by 7 without a remainder?
The number 56 is the only answer choice divisble by 7 without a remainder.
All of the other answer options result in non-zero remainders.
