Partial Quotients in Division

The video tutorial demonstrates the partial quotients strategy to solve 723 divided by 5. The process involves breaking down the division into manageable steps by estimating how many times 5 fits into parts of 723. The teacher first subtracts 500 (5 times 100) from 723, leaving a remainder of 223. Then, 200 (5 times 40) is subtracted, leaving 23. Finally, 20 (5 times 4) is subtracted, leaving a remainder of 3. The partial quotients (100, 40, and 4) are added to get the quotient of 144 with a remainder of 3.

What is the first step in using the partial quotients strategy for division?

• Estimate the quotient directly.

• Draw a line to organize the work.

• Subtract the divisor from the dividend.

• Multiply the divisor by the dividend.

How do you determine the first partial quotient when dividing 723 by 5?

• By estimating how many times 5 goes into 723.

• By dividing 723 by 5 directly.

• By subtracting 5 from 723 repeatedly.

• By multiplying 5 by 100.

After subtracting 500 from 723, what is the next step?

• Divide the remainder by 5.

• Multiply the remainder by 5.

• Add the partial quotients.

• Estimate how many times 5 goes into 223.

What is the partial quotient when 5 is multiplied by 40?

• 200

• 40

• 223

• 20

What is the final quotient and remainder when dividing 723 by 5 using the partial quotients method?

• 143 remainder 4

• 142 remainder 5

• 144 remainder 3

• 145 remainder 2
