QUOTIENT

Step-by-step work
Check with multiplication
Multiply the divisor by the whole-number quotient, then add the remainder. The result should equal the original dividend.
Common mistake
Write a zero in the quotient when the divisor does not fit into the current place. Skipping that zero changes the place value of every digit that follows.
