How can you use partial quotients to find 684 divided by 57?

684 divided by 57=12

Step-by-step explanation:(with reference to the figure)

To find  684 divided by 57 by partial quotients .

Here dividend= 684 and divisor =57

Step 1: Write easy factors of divisor that is nearest to the dividend as follows

57×2=114

57×3=171

57×5=285

57×10=570(nearest easy factor)

Step 2: Now subtract 570 from 684 ,we get 114 then subtract 114=57×2 from it we get 0.

Step 3: Adding the factors we have used in step 1 and 2 ,it will give required quotient=10+2=12

i.e. 684=57(10)+57(2)

step-by-step explanation:

you can add the two numbers and divide the result by 2. or you can find the gap between the two numbers and add half of this to the smaller number.
