In the problem &#8220;400 divided by 5&#8221;, the number <strong>400<\/strong> is the dividend, and <strong>5<\/strong> is the <strong>divisor<\/strong>\u2014the number we are dividing by. We are trying to find out how many groups of 5 can fit into 400 evenly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To solve this, we ask: &#8220;How many times does 5 go into 400?&#8221; This can be written as a division problem:<br><strong>400 \u00f7 5 = ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can solve this by either long division or basic multiplication facts. Start by estimating:<br>5 goes into 40 exactly 8 times because 5 \u00d7 8 = 40. Add the two zeros from 400, and the answer is <strong>80<\/strong>. That means 5 fits into 400 exactly 80 times with no remainder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To check, we do multiplication:<br>80 \u00d7 5 = 400.<br>Since the multiplication gives back the original number, we know the division was correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now let\u2019s talk about remainders. A <strong>remainder<\/strong> is what\u2019s left over when a number doesn\u2019t divide evenly. In this case, since 5 divides 400 exactly (with no leftovers), the <strong>remainder is 0<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This can be written as:<br><strong>400 \u00f7 5 = 80 R0<\/strong><br>or simply:<br><strong>400 \u00f7 5 = 80<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding division with and without remainders is important in math because it helps us solve real-life problems\u2014like sharing, budgeting, and measuring. It also lays the foundation for more advanced math topics like fractions, decimals, and algebra. When a number divides evenly, it&#8217;s neat and complete. When it doesn&#8217;t, the remainder tells us how much is left over. Here, there is <strong>no remainder<\/strong>, so the result is clean and simple: <strong>80<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Answer the division problem. 400 divided by 5 r _ The correct answer and explanation is: Answer:400 \u00f7 5 = 80, remainder 0 (written as: 400 \u00f7 5 = 80 R0) Explanation (300 words):Division is a mathematical operation where we split a number (called the dividend) into a certain number of equal parts.
