You are dividing 3972 by 41 explain why the first digit in the quotient should be placed over the tens place of the dividend

We have to divide 3972  by 41.

This means that 3972 is the dividend and 41 is the divisor.

When we start dividing the dividend by the divisor the first digit in the quotient is placed over the tens place of the dividend since 41 is greater than 39 so, we have to take one more digit of the dividend so that it could be divisible by 41.

i..e we have to firstly consider 397 and see which multiple of 41 is smaller or equal to 397.

the answer is 45 i just did it on oddesy ware
