Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given number is 5873.
To calculate the quotient when 5873 is divided by 8 we will use the approximation method.
If 5600 is the number compatible to 5873, where 5873 > 5600
5600 ÷ 8 = 700
If 6000 is the number compatible to 5873, where 5873 < 6000
6000 ÷ 8 = 750
Since, 5600 < 5873 < 6000
Therefore, [tex]\frac{5600}{8}<\frac{5873}{8}<\frac{6000}{8}[/tex]
700 < [tex]\frac{5873}{8}[/tex] < 750
Quotient for 5873 divided by 8 will be greater than 700 and less than 800.
