Question

What is 2,700 divided by 20​

Answer 1

So, 2700/20 would be exactly 135!

Answer 2

$\frac{2700}{20} = \frac{2000}{20} + \frac{700}{20} = 100 + \frac{700}{20}$

Then, how many times does 20 go into 700? Well, break it down a little further.

20 goes into 100, 6 times. 20+20+20+20+20+20=100

So 20 goes into 700, 6 x 7 = 35

So the final answer is

$\frac{2700}{20} = \frac{2000}{20} + \frac{700}{20} \\ = 100 + \frac{700}{20} \\ = 100 + (\frac{100}{20} \times 7)$

$= 100 + (6 \times 7) \\ = 100 + 35 \\ = 135$
