Answer (2)

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: How many 36 are there in 540 ( atleast 10) => First let’s see the partial Quotient => 10 x 36 => 360 => 540 – 360 = 180
Now, let’s find how many 36 are there in 180 (5) => 5 x 36 => 180
Then, let’s add => 360 + 180 => 540
Pls. see attached image.

Using partial quotients, 540 divided by 36 equals 15. We estimated by taking multiples of 36, subtracted the products from 540, and summed the partial results. This method allows us to divide without traditional long division.
