Respuesta :

we know that
When you divide one number by another, the result is called the quotient
so
[tex] \frac{68}{5} =13.6[/tex]

the answer is
the quotient is [tex]13.6[/tex]

The Quotient in 68 divided by 5 is 13 remainder 3

Further Explanation;

Mathematical operations  

  • There are four major operations in mathematics which includes, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.  
  • Addition and subtraction are complementary operations such that subtraction is the opposite of addition.
  • On the other hand division is the inverse of multiplication.  

Division

It is one of the operations in mathematics.

Division is the opposite of multiplication.  

It is symbolized as a slash, or a line with two dots one below and the other above the line.

Division consists of four parts  

  1. Divisor
  2. Dividend  
  3. Quotient
  4. Remainder  

Dividend  

This is the number that is divided  

Divisor

It is the number that is being divided by the divisor  

Quotient  

Quotient is the result obtained when a divisor is divided by a dividend.

Remainder  

This is the number that is left over after division

For example;

In the case of 68 divided by 5  

68 is the dividend  

5 is the divisor  

Using long method:  

Step 1: The divisor 5 is put on the left side while the dividend 68 on the right side  

Therefore;

68 / 5 = 13 remainder 6  

Thus  

13 is the quotient and 6 is the remainder
