Compare each quotient to its dividend.
42:6=7
8:1=8
12:12=1
Make a generalization about dividends quotients for whole numbers.

Respuesta :

42:6=7, the dividend is 42, the quotient is 7 
so 42= 6x7
8:1=8, 8=8x1
12= 1x12
generalization
let be a:b=q, so a = bx q, a dividend, q quotient and b the divisor
