Just take $576 and divide it by $32 and the answer would be 18 months
575 / 14
Use easy multiples of 14 that do not exceed 575. Use 10.
(1) 14*10 = 140 575 -140 = 435
(2) 14*10 = 140 435 - 140 = 295
(3) 14*10 = 140 295 -140 = 155
(4) 14*10 = 140 155 - 140 = 15
Now you cannot use another 10*14. Then just divide 15 by 14 which gives 1 and have remainder 1
(5) 15/14 = 1
15 - 14 = 1 = Remainder
Then, the sum of the partial quotients is 10+10+10+10+1 = 41; and you have remainder 1, therefore 575 = 41*14 + 1
And the result of the division is 575/14 = 41 plus remainder 1
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that all 54 shelves hold the same number of books its just a matter of dividing them (or sharing them equally) on each shelf.
3240 / 54 = 60
Each shelf holds 60 books.
