Worked practice questions

In 43 = 8 × 5 + 3, which number is the remainder?

  1. 5
  2. 3
  3. 8
  4. 43
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. 3

1. 43 is the number divided and 5 the divisor. 2. 8 is the quotient. 3. The leftover 3 is the remainder. _Source: Wikipedia, Remainder (CC BY-SA 4.0, rev 1365831909), remainder_

Which remainder is NOT possible when dividing by 7?

  1. 3
  2. 6
  3. 7
  4. 0
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. 7

1. A remainder must be at least 0. 2. It must also be less than the divisor 7. 3. So 7 itself can never be a remainder. _Source: Wikipedia, Remainder (CC BY-SA 4.0, rev 1365831909), remainder_

For which divisor is short division mostly used?

  1. A three-digit divisor
  2. A divisor of zero
  3. A one-digit divisor
  4. A decimal only
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. A one-digit divisor

1. Short division is a quicker form of long division. 2. It is mostly used when the divisor has one digit. 3. Long division handles bigger divisors. _Source: Wikipedia, Long division (CC BY-SA 4.0, rev 1380063092), short division_
