Math Problem Statement

Which would show the correct division with a remainder shown as a fraction? • A) 913 ÷ 29 = 31 14 29 5 • B) 852 - 16 = 53 16 8 O C) 200 - 46 = 4. 25 O D) 852-16 = 53.25

Solution

The correct answer is A).

Here’s why:

A) 913 ÷ 29 = 31 14/29

  • 913 ÷ 29 equals 31 with a remainder of 14.
  • The remainder is expressed as a fraction: 1429\frac{14}{29}, making the correct division with remainder as a fraction.

Explanation of other options:

  • B): It says "852 - 16 = 53 16/8", but this is subtraction, not division.
  • C): It says "200 - 46 = 4 25/46", which involves subtraction instead of division.
  • D): "852 - 16 = 53.25" also shows subtraction, not division.
