the number that is left after one whole number is divided by a number

• quotient

• remainder

• dividend

• divisor

Answer explanation

The question asks for the number that is left after one whole number is divided by another. This is the definition of 'remainder'. When we divide numbers, the 'remainder' is what's left over after division. Therefore, the correct answer is 'remainder'.

Keri is reading a novel that has 650 pages. She has 25 days to finish the book. If Keri reads the same number of pages each day, how many pages does she read each day?

• 26 pages

• 27 pages

• 20 pages

• 30 pages

Answer explanation

The question asks how many pages Keri reads each day if she reads the same number of pages each day for 25 days to finish a 650-page book. By dividing the total number of pages (650) by the number of days (25), we get 26. Therefore, the correct answer is '26 pages'.

What is a dividend?

• The answer to a division problem

• The number that is being divided

• The number left over

• The number dividing into another number

Answer explanation

A dividend is the number that is being divided in a division problem. It is the quantity that gets divided into equal parts by the divisor. In this case, the correct choice is 'The number that is being divided', which accurately defines a dividend.

The main parking lot for the park has 5 identical rows of parking spaces. If there are a total of 615 spaces, how many cars can park in each row?

• 103

• 111

• 123

• 3,060

Answer explanation

To find the number of cars that can park in each row, we need to divide the total number of parking spaces (615) by the number of rows (5). 615 divided by 5 equals 123. Therefore, 123 cars can park in each row.

the answer to a division problem

• quotient

• dividend

• divisor

• remainder

Answer explanation
