Question

What is 36 divided by 540 using partial quosient

Answer 1

We have to evaluate

`=(540)/(36)`

To find the Partial Quotient,

First we will 10nth Multiple of 36 which is =360.

Then after , Subtracting 360 from 540, which is equal to 180,we will find those multiple of 36 which is nearer to 180 or divides 180 exactly.

Find Quotient in each case.

→36 × 10=360

→36× 5 =180

---------------------

→36 ×(10+5)=360+180

→36 × 15=540

⇒Partial Quotient=10+5=15
