In division problems, if the division results in a decimal or fraction, (not a whole number), than it has a remainder.  If the division results in a whole number, then there is no remainder, or a remainder of zero. 

Examples:

6/3=2

6/4=1.5

The reason is because  the number you are trying to divide into parts is not a factor of the number you are trying to divide into parts. so there fore there are left overs. Example:  28/3 ( 28 divided by 3).  3 only goes into 28 9 time (because 9*3 is 27) and then your answer would be 9 REMAINDER of 1 because the 3 cannot equally divide into 28. Hope this helps!

3x+6-2 = 6x-(7/2*9/0)<br>​
kvv77 [185]

3x+6-2 = 6x-( \frac{7}{2}  \times  \frac{9}{0} ) \\  \\ 3x + 4 = 6x -  \frac{63}{0}  \\  \\ 3x + 4 = 6x - 0 \\  \\ 4 + 0 = 6x - 3x \\  \\ 3x = 4 \\  \\ x =  \frac{4}{3} .

The value of x is 4/3 .

The length of each side of a cube is x cm. If x is an interference,why can’t the volume of the cube equal 15 cm
slamgirl [31]

we don't know what the value of "X" is, so therefore, we cannot conclude that it is 15 cm.
