The zeros at the end of a number are known as trailing zeros. For example, 1200, 70, 3000…have trailing zeros.
In this lesson, we are dealing with problems involving division of numbers with trailing zeros
For example, 1800 ÷ 6 = 300
Divide 1500 ÷ 5
So 1500 ÷ 5 = 300
We can check if this is true by multiplying
5 × 300 = 1500. So 300 is the correct quotient.
Divide 400 ÷ 8
So 400 ÷ 8 = 50
