if 283 is divided by 4 where should the first digit of the quotient be placed
First thing up, are there any fours in two? Obviously there are none. So, we would have to see if there are any fours in twenty-eight. There are seven fours in twenty-eight. Therefore, the first digit of the quotient is 7.
283 ÷ 4 = 70, 3/4
2 ÷ 4 not possible, 28 yes by 70 and 3 remainder which is 70 and 3/4 :)
