To find part A of the model, Carter would look at the top outside label of the rectangle, which is labeled "A tens." This means that A represents the tens digit of the dividend, which in this case is 273. So, A would be equal to 2.
To find part C of the model, Carter would look at the top outside label of the rectangle, which is labeled "C." This represents the quotient of the division problem, which in this case is 273 ÷ 13. So, C would be equal to the quotient of that division, which Carter would need to calculate.
To find part B of the model, Carter would need to look at the number in the right section of the rectangle, which is labeled "B." This represents the remainder of the division problem, which Carter would also need to calculate.
The following question has two parts. First, answer part A. Then, answer part B.
Use the model to answer the questions.
A rectangle is divided into two sections by a vertical line. The left section is labeled inside with 260. The right section is labeled inside with B. The left edge of the rectangle is labeled 13. Across the top outside of the rectangle, the sections are labeled A tens, a plus sign above the vertical line, and C.
Part A
Carter wants to use the model above to solve 273÷13 . Explain how he would find parts A, B, and C of the model.
