Question

Complete the division problem by determining the number that should be placed in the box. Division bracket with 12 on the left, 5496 inside, and 458 above it. Underneath the 5496, there is a minus 4800. Then there is a solid line with 696 under the line. There is a minus sign, and an empty box followed by a solid line. Beneath the line, there is a 96 minus 96 underneath. There is a solid line and a 0 to end the problem. (4 points)

Answer 1

Answer:

600

Step-by-step explanation:

Just below the solid line, there is the remainder and just above the solid line, there is a multiple of 12.

The number with a negative sign is being subtracted to the above number.

The first subtraction is mentioned as

5496-4800=696, observe that 696 is just below the solid line.

Now, proceeding further in the same way, the number below the second solid line is 96 which is obtained when the number in the box is being subtracted to the above number 696.

Let the number in the box is $x$. So,

$696-x=96$

$\Rightarrow x=696-96=600$

Hence, the required number in the box is 600.
