Answer :
To calculate the quotient of 4082 divided by 62, we will perform a division operation.
Step-by-step process:
Set up the division: We will divide 4082 by 62. Write it as [tex]4082 \div 62[/tex].
Estimate how many times 62 fits into the first few digits of 4082: Start with the hundred's place if necessary.
- 62 does not fit into 40 (the first two digits).
- Next, consider 408.
- 62 goes into 408 about 6 times because [tex]62 \times 6 = 372[/tex].
Write down the result of this estimation: Write 6 above the division bar.
Subtract the product from the digits considered:
- Subtract 372 from 408, which gives 36.
Bring down the next digit: Bring down the 2 from 4082, making it 362.
Repeat the process:
- 62 goes into 362 about 5 times because [tex]62 \times 5 = 310[/tex].
- Subtract 310 from 362, leaving 52.
Check for any remaining digits: There are no more digits to bring down, and since we don't need a decimal answer here, we'll stop.
The quotient: Joining the digits above the division bar, the quotient is 65.
Therefore, [tex]4082 \div 62 = 65[/tex].
