Question

stefon used an area model to help him find the quoteint of 513÷19 . He determined that his quotient is 27. look at his work below

Answer 1

To evaluate the quotient 513÷19 using the area model:

• The first thing Stefon did is to pick an easy multiple (x 10) of 19.

,

• Next, the result is subtracted from 513 to get 323.

,

• This is repeated to get a remainder, 133.

,

• Since 133 is less than (10 x 19 =190), Stephon then used a lower multiple of 19, which is 7.

,

• He subtracted the result and got a remainder of 0.

Finally, he added all the multipliers of 19.

$10+10+7=27$

Thus, showing that the quotient 513÷19 is 27.
