Find the quotient.

1. 72 2253.6

2. 23 V531.3

3. 115 V7049.5

4. Solve the problem.
Audrey sold 122.5 kg of scrap fabrics. If each pack of scrap fabrics weighs about 5 kg, how many packs did Audrey sell?


Let's solve the given problems one by one:

### 1. \( \frac{72}{2253.6} \)

To find the quotient, divide 72 by 2253.6:

\[
\frac{72}{2253.6} \approx 0.03196
\]

### 2. \( \frac{23}{531.3} \)

To find the quotient, divide 23 by 531.3:

\[
\frac{23}{531.3} \approx 0.04329
\]

### 3. \( \frac{115}{7049.5} \)

To find the quotient, divide 115 by 7049.5:

\[
\frac{115}{7049.5} \approx 0.01631
\]

### 4. Audrey's Scrap Fabrics Problem

Audrey sold **122.5 kg** of scrap fabrics, and each pack weighs **5 kg**. To find how many packs Audrey sold, divide the total weight by the weight per pack:

\[
\frac{122.5}{5} = 24.5
\]

So, Audrey sold **24.5 packs** of scrap fabrics.
