Question

What is 2,700 divided by 20​

Answer 1

`(2700)/(20) = (2000)/(20) + (700)/(20) = 100 + (700)/(20)`

Then, how many times does 20 go into 700? Well, break it down a little further.

20 goes into 100, 6 times. 20+20+20+20+20+20=100

So 20 goes into 700, 6 x 7 = 35

So the final answer is

`(2700)/(20) = (2000)/(20) + (700)/(20) \\ = 100 + (700)/(20) \\ = 100 + ((100)/(20) * 7)`

`= 100 + (6 * 7) \\ = 100 + 35 \\ = 135`

Answer 2

So, 2700/20 would be exactly 135!
