edgar divided a five digit number by two digit number there was no remainder what is the least possible quotient of the two number

Respuesta :

Answer:

The least possible quotient is 125.

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we need to find the greatest 2 digit factor of 10,000.

10,000 = 2*2*2*2*5*5*5*5

So the greatest 2 digit number which will divide exactly into 10,000 is

= 2*2*2*2*5

= 80.

This will give the smallest quotient: 10,000 / 80 = 125.
