Answer:

ones

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Jim wants to divide 762 coupons equally among 9 stores.

So dividing 762 by 9, we get

$=\frac{762}{9}$

= 84.66

The position of the digit before the decimal place start with 'ones' and then proceeds to tens, hundreds, thousands, etc.

Therefore, the first digit of the quotient is in the ones place of the position value or place value.
