Create up to 5 smaller friendly equations to solve 664 divided by 60. only use division, no decimals

1 answer

To solve 664 divided by 60 using smaller friendly equations without decimals, you can break it down like this:

  1. \( 600 \div 60 = 10 \)
  2. \( 60 \div 60 = 1 \)
  3. \( 4 \div 60 = 0 \)

Now, combine the results:

  • \( 600 + 60 + 4 = 664 \)
  • Then, add the results of the divisions: \( 10 + 1 + 0 = 11 \)

Thus, \( 664 \div 60 \approx 11 \) (ignoring the remainder for a simple division).

You can also express it differently with slightly more division steps:

  1. \( 600 \div 60 = 10 \)
  2. \( 60 \div 60 = 1 \)
  3. \( 4 \div 60 = 0 \)
  4. Combine: \( 10 + 1 + 0 = 11 \)

The approximate answer remains the same.
