use the stander algorithm to find 546 ➗ 13.
How can you find the next digit in the quotient?
bring down the ? to show there are 2 tens
and ? ones that still need to be divided.
To find the quotient of 546 ÷ 13 using the standard algorithm, follow these steps:
1. Place 546 under the division symbol and 13 outside the division symbol.
```
__41
13 | 546
```
2. Divide the first digit of the dividend (5) by the divisor (13). Since 5 is smaller than 13, we move on to the next digit. Combine 5 and 4 to become 54, which is larger than 13, so we can proceed.
```
__41
13 | 546
52
```
3. Multiply the divisor (13) by the quotient digit obtained so far (4) to get the product 52. Subtract 52 from 54 to get 2.
```
__41
13 | 546
52
__
2
```
4. Bring down the next digit from the dividend (6) and combine it with the remainder you obtained (2) to get 26.
```
__41
13 | 546
52
__
26
```
5. Divide 26 by the divisor (13) to get the next quotient digit, which is 2. Multiply 13 by 2 to get 26 and subtract that from 26 to get 0.
```
__41
13 | 546
52
__
26
26
__
0
```
So, the quotient of 546 ÷ 13 is 42. The question mark represents that there are 2 tens and 6 ones left to be divided.
