Therefore, notice that on dividing by 10, the digit in the ONES place forms the
remainder, while the remaining digits form the quotient.
3. When a number is divided by 100, the quotient is the number made by the digits,
except the digits at one's and ten's places. The number formed by ten's and one's digit
of the dividend number is the remainder.
Example (i): 476 ÷ 100
Will give quotient 4 remainder 76
Example (ii): 3479 ÷ 100
Will give quotient 34 remainder 79
The number of digits in the remainder is equal to the number of zeros in the divisor.
Example (iii): 527 ÷ 100
So, quotient = 5 and remainder = 27
Example (iv): 7635 ÷ 100
So, quotient = 76 and remainder = 35
