1. 1245 ÷ 97

2. 311 ÷ 8

3. 1013 ÷ 88

Answer 1

1. 1245 ÷ 97

Here  base is 100

Quotient = 12 and Remainder = 81

2. 311 ÷ 8

Hints:

(i) quotient = 37, remainder =15

(ii) ∵ remainder > divisor

∴ correction is necessary

∴ corrected quotient = 38

corrected remainder = 7

3. 1013 ÷ 88

Here base is 100

Quotient = 11, remainder = 45
