7854/9 with remainder

1 answer

To divide 7854 by 9 and find the remainder, you can perform the division:

  1. First, divide 7854 by 9: \[ 7854 \div 9 = 873 \]

  2. Now, multiply the quotient (873) by 9 to find out how much of 7854 is covered: \[ 873 \times 9 = 7857 \]

  3. Since 7857 is greater than 7854, we actually need to take the product of 872 instead: \[ 872 \times 9 = 7848 \]

  4. Now, subtract this product from 7854 to find the remainder: \[ 7854 - 7848 = 6 \]

Thus, when you divide 7854 by 9, the quotient is 872 with a remainder of 6. So, you can express it as:

\[ 7854 = 9 \times 872 + 6 \]

The remainder is 6.
