Let us consider,

The problem: 'Find two numbers between which the quotient of 50 ÷ 7 lies'.

Solution: We will solve this in two steps.

Step 1: Form a table of multiples of 7.

Counting number               Multiple of 7

          1                                       7

          2                                     14

          3                                     21

          4                                     28

          5                                     35

          6                                     42

          7                                     49

           8                                    56

Step 2: Use the table to find the multiples closest to 50.

Since, 49 = 7 × 7 and 56 = 7 × 8

Thus, 50 lies between 49 and 56.

Then, the quotient is either 7 or 8.

As 50 is closest to 49.

Hence, the quotient of 50 ÷ 7 is 7.

Answer:

You have 21 candies and you want to share them among 4 friends. How many candies correspond to each one?

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiples of four are: 4 (= 4*1), 8 (= 4*2), 12 (= 4*3), 16 (= 4*4), 20 (= 4*5), 24 (= 4*6), ...

Then, 21/4 can be approximated as 20/4 = 5
