Question

984÷x=3 remainder:84

Answer 1

The value of x in 984 ÷ x = 3 remainder: 84 is 300

Step-by-step explanation:

In the division problem A ÷ B = Q $\frac{R}{B}$, where

• A is the dividend
• B is the divisor
• Q is the quotient
• R is the remainder

If A is divisible by B, then R = 0

Examples:

1. 23 ÷ 5 = 4 $\frac{3}{5}$ , The dividend is 23, the divisor is 5, the quotient is 4, and the remainder is 3
2. 54 ÷ 6 = 9, 54 is divisible by 6 , then the remainder = 0

The rule of the dividend is ⇒dividend = (divisor × quotient) + reminder

Let us use this rule to find x

984 ÷ x = 4, remainder 84

∵ Dividend = 984

∵ Divisor = x

∵ Quotient is 3

∵ Remainder = 84

- Substitute these values in the rule of dividend above

∵ 984 = (x × 3) + 84

∴ 984 = 3x + 84

- Subtract 84 from both sides

∴ 900 = 3x

- Divide both sides by 3

∴ 300 = x

∴ The value of x = 300

The value of x in 984 ÷ x = 3 remainder: 84 is 300
