Question

Estimate each of the following quotient$:$

$182÷19$

Answer 1

We want to find out the quotient when $182$ is divided by $19$

First find the nearest hundred to $182$

In $182$ ten's digit is $8,$ which is greater than $5$ now increase the hundred digit by $1$ and replace ten's and unit digit by $0$

Nearest hundred to $182$ is $=200$

and nearest ten to $19$ is $=20$

Now find the quotient$:$

$=200÷20$

$=\frac{200}{20}$

$=10$

Hence$,$ the quotient is $10$ when $182$ is divided by $19$
