Question

Jim needs to divide 769 coupon books equally among 9 stores. In which place is the first digit of the quotient? Select the word that makes the sentence true.

Answer 1

Answer:

tens

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we need to do is calculate the quotient. This would be the answer of dividing the number of coupons by the number of total stores.

769 / 9 = 85.4

If we count the first digit from the left as the first digit then that would mean 8 is the first digit and it is in the tens spot while the 5 is in the Ones spot.
