To solve this problem, let's carry out the division:

• Step 1: Confirm the numbers involved. We are dividing 38 by 2, where 38 is the dividend and 2 is the divisor.
• Step 2: Perform the division using long division or directly calculate $38 \div 2$.
• Step 3: Start dividing: 2 goes into 3 one time (since 2 fits into 3 once), leaving a remainder of 1.
• Step 4: Bring down the next digit from the dividend. The sequence now is: how many times does 2 go into 18?
• Step 5: 2 fits into 18 nine times exactly without any remainder.

Thus, $38 \div 2 = 19$.

Therefore, the solution to this problem is $19$.

The final answer is $\boxed{13}$.

To solve this division problem, we will divide the number 48 by 4 and find the quotient.

The expression for this calculation is:

Let's perform the division:

• We start with the number 48.
• We divide 48 by 4. The question we are asking is: "How many times does 4 go into 48?"
• By calculating, we find that 4 fits into 48 exactly 12 times.

The steps can be broken down as follows:

• 4 goes into the first digit of 48 (4), 1 time.
• The remainder from this division is 0, bring down the next digit, which is 8.
• 4 goes into 8, 2 times (as 4 × 2 = 8).
• There is no remainder, confirming the division is complete.

Thus, the quotient of 48 divided by 4 is:

$12$

Therefore, the correct answer is 12, which corresponds to choice 4.

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

• Step 1: Identify the numbers involved: 60 (dividend) and 3 (divisor).
• Step 2: Perform the division operation to find the quotient.

Let's work through these steps:

Step 1: In this problem, we need to divide 60 by 3.
Step 2: Using basic division, we calculate:

$60 \div 3 = 20$

How we calculated this:
- Divide the tens digit, 6 by 3, which equals 2. Note that 2 as the first digit of the quotient corresponds to twenty since this operation considers the tens place.
- Multiply 2 by 3 to get 6, which subtracted from the original 6 leaves 0.
- Bring down the 0 in the units place.
- Now, divide 0 by 3. This results in 0.
- So, the units place of our quotient is also 0, confirming our answer is 20.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $20$. This matches choice 3 (20) in the available options.

To solve this problem, we will divide 22 by 2 to find the quotient.

Step-by-step solution:

• Step 2: Divide the first digit of 22, which is 2, by 2. This gives us 1, with no remainder.
• Step 3: Bring down the next digit, 2, making it 2 again.
• Step 4: Divide 2 by 2, which gives us another 1.
• Step 5: There are no more digits to bring down, and no remainder is left.

Therefore, the quotient when dividing 22 by 2 is $11$.

Comparing this with the provided multiple-choice options, the correct choice is option 3: $11$.

• Calculate the quotient by dividing 50 by 5.

Let's carry out the calculation step:

The division is $\frac{50}{5} = 10$.

Therefore, the quotient of 50 divided by 5 is $10$.

The correct choice from the given options is: Choice 2: $10$.

To solve this problem, we'll divide 640 by 8 using long division.

• Step 1: Set up the long division, where 640 is the dividend inside the division bracket, and 8 is the divisor outside.

• Step 2: Determine how many times 8 goes into the first digit, 6. It does not go into 6 since 6 is less than 8. Move to the next digit.

• Step 3: Consider the first two digits, 64. 8 goes into 64 a total of 8 times since $8 \times 8 = 64$. Write 8 above the division line.

• Step 4: Subtract 64 from 64, which results in 0. Bring down the next digit, 0, from the dividend, making it 00.

• Step 5: Determine how many times 8 goes into 0. It goes 0 times, so write 0 as the next digit of the quotient.

• Step 6: The final required division is complete. The quotient is $80$.

The result of dividing 640 by 8 is $80$. Therefore, the correct answer is choice 3: $80$.

To solve the problem of dividing 518 by 7, we'll perform long division:

1. Start with the first digit of the dividend, which is 5, in the hundreds place.

• $7$ does not go into $5$, so proceed to the next digit to make it 51.

2. Determine how many times $7$ goes into $51$ completely:

• $7 \times 7 = 49$, which is closest to 51 without exceeding it.
• Write $7$ as part of the quotient.
• Subtract $49$ from $51$, which leaves a remainder of $2$.

3. Bring down the next digit from the dividend, which is $8$, making the new number $28$.

4. Determine how many times $7$ goes into $28$ completely:

• $7 \times 4 = 28$, which equals 28.
• Write $4$ as the next digit of the quotient.
• Subtract $28$ from $28$, which leaves a remainder of $0$.

Since we reach a remainder of 0 after using all digits of the dividend, the division is exact. Therefore, the result is:

$74$. Thus, the correct answer is choice 3.

To solve this problem, we'll utilize the long division method to divide 252 by 7:

1. Start by dividing the first digit (2) of 252 by 7. Since 2 is less than 7, consider the first two digits (25).
2. Divide 25 by 7. The largest integer quotient is 3 because $3 \times 7 = 21$. Write 3 above the division bar.
3. Subtract 21 from 25 to get a remainder of 4.
4. Bring down the next digit (2) to make the new number 42.
5. Divide 42 by 7. The quotient is 6 because $6 \times 7 = 42$.
6. Subtract 42 from 42, resulting in a remainder of 0.

Since there are no more digits to bring down and the remainder is 0, the division is complete.

The quotient of 252 divided by 7 is $36$.

Comparing this result with the given choices, we see that choice 3 is correct.

To solve this problem, we'll perform long division of 216 by 3:

• Step 1: Divide the hundreds digit. 2 (from 216) divided by 3 is 0, so we write 0 as the quotient.
• Step 2: Since 2 is less than 3, we consider the next digit. Thus, we take the first two digits, 21. 21 divided by 3 equals 7.
• Step 3: Write 7 in the quotient beside the 0. The quotient now is 07.
• Step 4: Now, consider the last digit: Bring down the 6. Divide 16 by 3 to get 5. Write 6 in the remainder position.
• Step 5: Since 6 is divisible by 3 evenly, divide it to get 2. Thus, the final digit for our quotient is 2.
• Step 6: Combining these, the full quotient becomes 72.

Therefore, the solution to the division $\frac{216}{3}$ is $72$.
