Without dividing,
how can you tell if the quotient for
5,873 = 8 is greater than 700? Explain
whether the quotient is less than 800.

Respuesta :

Answer:

  • The quotient is between 700 and 800

Step-by-step explanation:

Prove by multiplication

  • 700*8 = 5600 < 5873

Similarly

  • 800*8 = 6400 > 5873

So the expression is 5873/8

Now

We can prove the given statement to multiplication

Multiply with 8

  • 700×8
  • 5600

And

  • 800×8
  • 6400

Yes

We see 5873 lies between 5600 and 6400 hence the quotient is greater than 700 but less than 800
