When one number (dividend) is divided by another number (divisor), the result obtained is known as Quotient.
The quotient can be expressed as the number of times the divisor divides the dividend.
Here, when 35 ÷ 7, the quotient would be 5, while 35 would be called the dividend, and 7, the divisor.
The number 16, when divided by 3, has a quotient of 5 and the remainder as 1.
A. 7
B. 8
C. 6
D. 9
Correct Answer: D
Step 1: Quotient is the end result we get after we divide one number by another.
Step 2: 27 ÷ 3 [Original expression.]
Step 3: = 9 [Simplify.]
Step 4: So, the quotient of 27 ÷ 3 = 9.
