I need to know whats the remainder of 812 divided by 12?

-thanks

i figured it out, thanks!

Answer 1

use long division (not calculator)

,,,,,,,,,,___67____
,,,12,,||,,,,812
,,,,,,,,,,,,_-72__
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,92
,,,,,,,,,,,__-84__
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,8 <<

Answer 2

divide 812 by 12 to get:

67 and 2/3
the 2/3 is 8/12 when you multiply 2/3 by 4/4 so the remainder is 8.

Another way is to take the whole part of the answrer and multiply it by 12 then subtract the answer from 812 so:
812 - [67*12]=812-804=8

Answer 3

usually, calculators wont give u a remainder, u hav 2 work it out.
if the problem is 3 divided by 29:
3 doesn't go into 2, so put a 0.
3 goes into 29 9 times, so put 9.
3X9=27, and 29-27=2, so the answer is 09 remainder 2.
812/12
okay, 12 wont go into 8, so put 0. it goes into 81 6 times, so put 6. 6X12=72, and 81-72=9. bring down the 2. 12 goes into 92 8 times so put 7. 8X12=84, and 92-84=8, so the answer is 067 remainder 8.

Answer 4

One way is to go back to elementary school and do long division.

The answer to 812/12=67.6666666666667

That = 67 8/12

8 is the ramainder
