Divide the first digit of the dividend by the divisor, subtract, and bring down the next digit from the dividend.
Now repeat the steps again.
How many times can 4 go into 13?
3 times.
Divide, multiply, subtract, and bring down the next digit.
Every time you bring down a digit, repeat all the steps.
How many times can 4 go into 19?
4 can go into 19 four times.
In my town, gas prices are always listed to the thousandths place. Since the smallest coin we have is the penny, we have to round them to the hundredths place. If the price of gas is $3.545, what will the price be when we round it to the hundredths place?
When rounding to the hundredths place, you look at the digit in the thousandths place. If it is 5 or greater, you round up the digit in the hundredths place. If it is less than 5, you leave the digit in the hundredths place as is.
In this case, the digit in the thousandths place is 5, which means we need to round up the digit in the hundredths place. So, the price of gas rounded to the hundredths place would be $3.55.
To find out how many times 4 can go into 13, you can use the long division method. Follow these steps:
1. Start by placing the divisor (4) outside the division bracket and the dividend (13) inside the bracket.
___
4 | 13
2. Divide the first digit of the dividend (1) by the divisor. Determine the largest whole number that can be multiplied by the divisor without exceeding the dividend. In this case, 4 can go into 1 zero times.
0
___
4 | 13
3. Subtract the product of the divisor and the result obtained in the previous step from the digits under consideration. In this case, 4 multiplied by 0 is 0.
0
___
4 | 13
-0
4. Bring down the next digit from the dividend, which is 3.
0
___
4 | 13
-0
3
5. Repeat the steps. Divide the new number (3) by the divisor (4). Determine the largest whole number that can be multiplied by the divisor without exceeding the new number. In this case, 4 can go into 3 zero times.
0
___
4 | 13
- 0
3
6. Subtract the product of the divisor and the result obtained in the previous step from the digits under consideration. In this case, 4 multiplied by 0 is 0.
0
___
4 | 13
- 0
3
7. There are no more digits in the dividend to bring down. At this point, you can determine the remainder. The remainder is 3.
So, 4 can go into 13 zero times with a remainder of 3.
