Question

Dividing the largest 3-digit number by the largest 1-digit number gives _____.

• A. 100
• B. 111
• C. 999
• D. 101

Answer 1

The correct option is B 111

We know,
Largest 3-digit number = 999
Largest 1-digit number = 9

So, here we have to divide 999 by 9.
Let us divide the numbers using place value.

So, at first, we write the expanded form of the dividend 999.


Let's divide each of these places with the divisor 9.

After division by place value, we add all the partial quotients to get the final answer.


Here the final quotient is 111.


Hence, 999 $÷$ 9 = 111
