To solve these division problems, we can use the fact that if we know how to divide smaller numbers, we can apply the same principle to larger numbers by recognizing the patterns involved.
-
24 ÷ 6 = 4
-
240 ÷ 6 = 40
(This is 24 ÷ 6 multiplied by 10, since 240 is 24 with an additional zero.) -
2,400 ÷ 6 = 400
(This is 240 ÷ 6 multiplied by 10, since 2,400 is 240 with an additional zero.) -
24,000 ÷ 6 = 4,000
(This is 2,400 ÷ 6 multiplied by 10, since 24,000 is 2,400 with an additional zero.)
So, the quotients are:
- 24 ÷ 6 = 4
- 240 ÷ 6 = 40
- 2,400 ÷ 6 = 400
- 24,000 ÷ 6 = 4,000
