Answer:
Quotient = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Round each mixed number to the nearest whole number
a) 24 16/17 = 424/17
= 24.941176471
Approximately to the nearest whole number ≈ 25
b) 4 8/9 = 44/9
= 4.8888888889
Approximately to the nearest whole number ≈ 5
Next step we estimate the quotient
Quotient = Dividend ÷ Divisor
Dividend = 25
Divisor = 5
Quotient = 25 ÷ 5
= 5
Therefore, the quotient is 5
