Question

Which of the following correctly shows the quotient of 75 divided by 5?

Answer 1

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

in multiplication we have given form of expression

Dividend(D) = Quotient(Q) x Divisor(d) + Remainder(r)

The number which is getting divided is called dividend

divisor is the number which divides the dividend.

quotient is the No. of times a dividend is divisible by divisor.

if dividend is not completely divisible by divisor then leftover after quotient * divisor is remainder.

value of remainder should be always less than divisor.

In  the problem given

Dividend is 75

divisor is 5

so by the given above expression

Dividend(D) = Quotient(Q) * Divisor(d) + Remainder(r) ----> 1

we know that 15*5 = 75

75 = 15*5 + 0

comparing with the  expression 1

we have q = 15

r = 0

Thus, quotient is 15.
