Chapter 1 - Whole Numbers - 1.6 Long Division - 1.6 Exercises - Page 60: 6

Answer

522 R 14

Work Step by Step

46 is larger than 24, so the first step in the long division will be to divide 46 into 240. The quotient of $240 \div 46$ will therefore be placed over the 0 in 24026. Since there must be a digit in the quotient placed above each digit in the dividend, the quotient for $24026 \div 46$ will be a 3 digit answer, with one digit over the 0, another digit over the 2 and another digit over the 6. Since 522 R 14 is the only 3 digit answer given, 522 R 14 is the correct answer choice.
