Division Practice problems

Introduction to division practice problems:

In mathematics, especially in elementary arithmetic, division (÷) is the arithmetic operation that is the inverse of multiplication.

The following division methods are all based on the form Q = N / D where

• Q = Quotient

• N = Numerator (dividend)

• D = Denominator (divisor).

Specifically, if c times b equals a, written:

c x b = a

Where b is not zero, then a divided by b equals c, written:

a / b = c

In the above expression, a is called the dividend, b the divisor and c the quotient. (Source: Wikipedia)

I like to share this Difference Quotient Examples with you all through my article.

Example problems on division practice


Ex:1  Jack built a tower of blocks forty-five inches high. Each block in the tower is five inches tall. How many blocks were used to build the tower?

Sol: Jack built a tower of blocks forty-five inches high.

Each block in the tower is five inches tall.

So, total blocks = 45 / 5

Therefore total blocks used to build the tower = 9 blocks

Ex:2 The school's Internet connection transferred thirty six megabytes of data in six seconds. How many megabytes can it transfer in just one second?

Sol:

The school's Internet connection transferred thirty six megabytes Data in six seconds.

So, therefore total megabytes can it transfer in just one second

= 36 / 6 = 6 megabytes.

Ex:3 There are eight soft drink machines in the university. They hold sixty - four cases of soda altogether. How many cases does each machine hold?

Sol:

There are eight soft drink machines in the university.

They hold sixty - four cases of soda altogether.

Total cases of soda machine hold = 64 / 8

= 8 Cases of soda

Ex:4 Zachary used five thousand, five hundred forty-four chips to make a big batch of giant chocolate chip cookies. Each cookie got about eighteen chips. How many cookies did Zachary make?

Sol:

Zachary used five thousand, five hundred forty-four chips to make a big batch of giant chocolate chip cookies

Each cookie got about eighteen chips

So, total cookies Zachary make = 5544 / 18

= 308 Cookies

Ex:5 Twenty-five busses brought a total of seven hundred fifty passengers to the city. About how many passengers were on each bus?

Sol:

Twenty-five busses brought a total of seven hundred fifty passengers to the city.

So, total passengers were on each bus = 750 / 25

= 30 Passengers 

Understanding solve the system of linear equations by graphing is always challenging for me but thanks to all math help websites to help me out.

Practice Act Question

Act Test preparation:

Act test is one of test which is used to get admissions in mid east countries. Depending on the test marks students get admissions in mid east colleges. Many students around the globe are writing this test hence this test mark is now accepted in US countries also. Act test is some what different from sat test. Act test consists of science reasoning questions but sat test does not. The grammatical talent of the student is checked in the act test while it is not in the sat test. Both the sat and act test are skill oriented test.  The act test is conducted for nearly 4 hrs and optional of 30 minutes.

Act practice problems:

Act practice question 1:

Anand's new job comes with a salary increase of 8%. If he currently makes $74,000 per year, which of the following is the amount he will earn per year at his new job?

A. $79,000
B. $72,000
C. $79,200
D. $75,550
E. $79,920

Solution:

Increase percent in salary = 8 %

8% of $74,000                     = (8 x 74,000) / 100

= 8 x 740

= $5920

The total amount her earned is = $74,000 + $5920

= $79,920

The amount he earned is $79,920

Answer: E



Act practice question 2:

A. 10 mph
B. 12 mph
C. 15 mph
D. 23 mph
E. 27 mph

Solution:

Let the speed of suresh per hour = x

Speed of arun                              = 3x

Arun biked suresh distance in ½ hour.

Total distance covered by arun   = 3*10

= 30 miles

Arun covered the distance in half the time of suresh,

= 30/2

Average speed of arun                  = 15 miles/hr

The answer is 15 miles/hr

Answer: C

Reasoning Practice Test

Introduction:

Let us learn about the reasoning practice test. Reasoning test is a test which is conducted to get placed in international colleges, universities and in companies. Reasoning test  practice consists of quantitative aptitude, verbal reasoning and analytical writing. Quantitative aptitude involves math problem solving questions on various topics. Practice of reasoning test questions helps the students to get skilled in aptitude questions. It also helps the students to get prepared for SAT and ACT test.

I like to share this Quantitative Data Collection Methods with you all through my article.

Reasoning practice test:


Example 1:

A trader mixes 30 kg of rice at Rs. 18 per kg with 28 kg of rice of other variety at Rs. 34 per kg and sells the mixture at Rs. 32 per kg. What is the profit percentage?

Solution:

Total price of 58kg mixture rice = ( 30 x 18 + 28 x 34)

= 540 + 952

= Rs 1492.

Sell price of 58 kg rice = (58 x 32)

= Rs 1852

Total gain amount        = Rs 1852 - Rs 1492

= Rs 360

Total gain percentage = (360/1492)*100

= 0.24 * 100

= 24%

The profit gain is 24%



Example 2:

Vinay has 100 kg of wheat, part of wheat which he sells at 8% profit and the rest of wheat at 18% profit. He gains 14% on the whole. What is the quantity sold at 18% profit?

Solution:

From the given data, form two equations,

Part of wheat sold at 8%    = X

Part of wheat sold at 18%  = Y

X + Y = 100  equation 1

0.08X + 0.18Y = 100(0.14)

0.08X + 0.18Y = 14 equation 2

Multiply equation 1 with 0.18

0.18X + 0.18Y = 18  equation 1

0.08X + 0.18Y = 14  equation 2     (subtract)

0.10X                = 4

Divide 0.10 on both sides,

0.10X/0.10 = 4/0.10

X = 40 kg

Total quantity            = 100

Remaining quantity = 100 - 40

Y  = 60 kg

The quantity which is sold at  18% profit is 60 kg.

Practice Algebra Division

Introduction of practice algebra division:

Algebra is a branch of mathematics, which is used to make mathematical problems of real-world events and switch problems that we cannot explain using arithmetic.

Algebra is used the symbols for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division and it includes constants, operating symbols and variables

Division is one of the arithmetic operation. Manually division is defined as the reverse operation of multiplication. Variables and constants are combined or grouped and to make algebraic expressions .it contains variables, expressions, terms, polynomials, and equation .

Main goal of division is minimizing the value of dividend or series of subtraction from dividend. The symbol for division is “/”.

Ex :     x ^2+6x+`7/x` +8


Operations of Algebra division:


The Algebra division is defined as repeated subtraction of divisor from the dividend.

The Form of Manual division method,

a / b = c

Where, a is called as  dividend. b is called as divisor.c is called as quotient.

Example:

45 / 5 = 9

example of algebra division using polynomial:

x ^2+12x+27 /  x+9

Here, x ^2+12x+27 is dividend

x+9 is divisor

x+3 is quotient of (x ^2+12x+27) / ( x+9)

I like to share this Degree of Polynomial with you all through my article.

Example problems:


Division of: (x ^2+4x+6)/(x+5)

Sol:   (x ^2+4x+6) is dividend and (x+5) is the divisor.

This is the given standard form of algebra division. In first we can check the order of terms on both dividend and divisor. If it was not in degree of  order, we can arrange the terms.

Like x ^2+x+x3 mean we can change x^3+x ^2+x

After rearrange the terms we can  divide the first term of the dividend   by the first term of the divisor, it mean x ^2/x=x .It gives the first terms of quotient.

After we got the first terms of quotient, and then multiply the first term with quotient after  then subtract this product from the dividend.

The product is x ^2+5,and the subtracted value is –x+6 (remainder)

Again we can  divide the first term of the dividend   by the first term of the divisor, it mean   -x/x =-1 .

It gives the second terms  after then multiply the first term with quotient after  then subtract this product from the dividend .

Now got the remainder is 11

Final answer is x-1
