Question

Determine the quotient when the largest number formed using the given digits is divided by 12.
0, 5, 4, 9

• A. 795
• B. 780
• C. 790

Answer 1

The correct option is A 795

Arrange the given digits in the descending order.
9 > 5 > 4 > 0
So, the largest number formed using the digits is 9540.
Dividend = 9540
Divisor = 12
Division equation: Dividend $÷$ divisor = quotient
9540 $÷$ 12 = ?
Expanded form of 9540 as the sum of the place values of the digits = 9000 + 500 + 40


Quotient = 750 + 40 + 5 = 795
9540 $÷$ 12 = 795
