Do the division problem.Multiply the quotient times the divisor.If there is a remainder, add it to the multiplication product.Compare this answer to the dividend. They should be the same number (630 = 630).
Answer:
Instead of divide the dividend by the divisor to get a quotient, you can estimate an approximate quotient and then multiply it by the dividend. If the result is greater than the divisor, then your estimated quotient was greater than the actual quotient, in the case that the result is lower than the divisor, then your estimated quotient was lower than the actual quotient. After that you proceed to estimate again the quotient. For example:
First approximation:
192/12 ≈ 14
12*14 = 168 < 192
Second approximation:
192/12 ≈ 20
12*20 = 240
So, the answer is between 14 and 20
Third approximation:
192/12 ≈ 16
12*16 = 192
Then, 16 is the correct answer
