select the correct answer. if needed, use a paper and pencil to find the solution.
what is the quotient?
98,765 ÷ 36 =?
2,743 r17
2,743 r36
2,743 r23
274 r12

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate quotient and remainder

First, compute $36 \times 2743 = 36 \times (2000 + 700 + 40 + 3) = 72000 + 25200 + 1440 + 108 = 98748$.
Then find the remainder: $98765 - 98748 = 17$.
Verify that the remainder (17) is less than the divisor (36).

Answer:

2,743 R17
