Question

Select the correct pair of missing digits for the division shown below.

• A. P = 7, Q = 6
• B. P = 8, Q = 7
• C. P = 6, Q = 7
• D. P = 7, Q = 8

Answer 1

The correct option is D P = 7, Q = 8

$\text{Detailed step-by-step solution:}$

Divide 94 by 12.
So, 12 times 7 is 84.
Therefore, we put 7 in the quotient and subtract 84 from 94 to get 10 as the remainder.
The value of P = 7

Bring down the next digit.
Divided 106 by 12.
So, 12 times 8 is 96.
Therefore, we put 8 in the quotient and subtract 96 from 106 to get 10 as the remainder.

Now, the hundredth digit in the quotient is 9.
So, 12 times 9 is 108.
Therefore, the digit at hundredths place in the dividend is 8.
The value of Q = 8

Hence, option C is correct.
