How can you tell without computing which of the symbols > , < , or = should be placed in the
box? Select all that apply.

63 ÷ 9 □ 63 ÷ 7
Both expressions have 63 as a dividend.
Both expressions have 7 as a quotient.
Both expressions have 9 as a divisor.
If you divide the same amount into fewer groups, there will be more in each group.
If you divide the same amount into more groups, there will be more in each group
To determine which symbol should be placed in the box, you can consider the relationship between the divisors and the quotients.
1. If you divide the same amount into fewer groups, there will be more in each group. In this case, since 7 is a smaller divisor than 9, the quotient for the expression 63 ÷ 7 will be larger than the quotient for the expression 63 ÷ 9. Therefore, you can place the symbol > in the box.
2. Both expressions have 63 as a dividend. This information does not help determine which symbol should be placed in the box.
3. Both expressions have 7 as a quotient. This information does not help determine which symbol should be placed in the box.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
- If you divide the same amount into fewer groups, there will be more in each group.
