Answer 1

To convert the integer 2716 to a decimal using long division, we are actually looking to represent the number in a form that makes sense (like dividing it by some other number or finding it in a fractional context). However, since you didn't specify a number to divide by, I will assume you meant dividing it by 1000 to get a decimal.

Let's perform the long division of 2716 by 1000.

1. Setup the division: 2716 ÷ 1000.

2. Determine how many times 1000 fits into 2716:

   • 1000 goes into 2716 2 times (because \( 2 \times 1000 = 2000 \)).

3. Subtract: \[ 2716 - 2000 = 716 \]

4. Bring down the next digit:

   • Since we are converting it to a decimal, we append a decimal point and a zero to make it 7160. This would be the next step in long division for novel digits.

5. Continue the division:

   • 1000 goes into 7160 7 times (because \( 7 \times 1000 = 7000 \)).

6. Subtract: \[ 7160 - 7000 = 160 \]

7. Bring down the next zero:

   • Now we have 1600.

8. 1000 goes into 1600:

   • 1 time (because \( 1 \times 1000 = 1000 \)).

9. Subtract: \[ 1600 - 1000 = 600 \]

10. Bring down the next zero:

    • Now we have 6000.

11. 1000 goes into 6000:

    • 6 times (because \( 6 \times 1000 = 6000 \)).

12. Subtract: \[ 6000 - 6000 = 0 \]

So putting it all together, we have:

• 2 from \( 1000 \) into \( 2716 \)
• 7 from \( 1000 \) into \( 7160 \)
• 1 from \( 1000 \) into \( 1600 \)
• 6 from \( 1000 \) into \( 6000 \)

The result of \( 2716 ÷ 1000 = 2.716 \).

The correct answer from your responses is:

2.716.
