Question

Divide the following:

$600÷3$

Answer 1

Let us divide $600$ by $3$

Step 1 : Divide $6$ hundreds by $3$ i.e, $6÷3=2$

Write $2$ in the hundreds place of the quotient and write product $6$, below the dividend in the hundreds place. $6-6=0$

Step 2 : Bring down $0$

$0÷0=0$

Write $0$ in the tens place of the quotient and write product $0$, below the dividend in the tens place. $0-0=0$

Step 3 : Bring down $0$

$0÷0=0$

Write $0$ in the ones place of the quotient and write $0$ below the dividend in ones place. $0-0=0$

$$\begin{gathered} \text{H T O} \\ 200 \\ 3⟌600 \\ -6\downarrow \downarrow \\ 00\downarrow \\ -0\downarrow \\ 0\downarrow \\ 0 \\ -0 \\ 0 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the required quotient is $200$ and remainder is $0$
