Solve 170%

$$170 \%$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{17}{10}=1.7$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 170

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}\phantom{1}\\100\overline{)170}\\\end{array}$$

Since 1 is less than 100, use the next digit 7 from dividend 170 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}0\phantom{2}\\100\overline{)170}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 7 from dividend 170

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}0\phantom{3}\\100\overline{)170}\\\end{array}$$

Since 17 is less than 100, use the next digit 0 from dividend 170 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}00\phantom{4}\\100\overline{)170}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 170

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}00\phantom{5}\\100\overline{)170}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 100 to 170. We see that 1 \times 100 = 100 is the nearest. Now subtract 100 from 170 to get reminder 70. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}001\phantom{6}\\100\overline{)170}\\\phantom{100)}\underline{\phantom{}100\phantom{}}\\\phantom{100)9}70\\\end{array}$$

Since 70 is less than 100, stop the division. The reminder is 70. The topmost line 001 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }70$$

Factor

$$\frac{17}{2 \cdot 5} = 1\frac{7}{10} = 1.7$$
