Question

Determine where to place the decimal point in the dividend and divisor so that the quotient is between 23 and 25

Answer 1

Answer:

Place the decimal before the last digit in both number i.e. 1602.3 and 65.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the numerical expression 16023÷654.

Here, we have,

Dividend = 16023

Divisor = 654

it is required that the quotient of the division to be between 23 and 25.

If we take the numbers,

1602.3 and 65.4

This gives us,

$\frac{1602.3}{65.4}=24.5$.

Hence, placing the decimal before the last digit in both number will give the desired result.
