Cvt off as many figures from tJie right hand' of the dividend as
tJiere are Hpliers in the divisor. Tlie remaining figures of the div-
idend will be the quotient, and tliose cut off the remainder.
8. In one dime there are 10 ce^ts : how many dimes are there
in 200 cents ? In 340 cents ? In 560 cents ?

0. In one dollar there are 100 cents : how many dollars are
there in 65000 cents ? In 705000 cents? In 4320000 cents?

10. Divide 26750000 by 100000.
11. Divide 141360791 by 1000000.
12. Divide 582367180309 by 100000000.
Case III. — Wlien tlie divisor has ciphers on the right hand.
13.- How many hogsheads of molasses, at 30 dollars apiece,
can you buy for 9643 dollars ?

Oes. The divisor 30, is a composite number, the/actors of which are 3 and
10. (Arts. 95, 90.) We mw, therefore, divide first by one factor and the
quotient thence ariising bytne other. (Art. 129.) Now cutting^ofT the right
hand figure of the dividend, divides it by ten; (Art. 131 ;) consequently divid-
ing the remaining figures of the dividend by 3, the other factor of the divisor,
will give the quotient.
Operation. We first cut off the cipher on the right

3|0)964|3 of the divisor, and also cut qfif the right

321 i^ Ans. hand figure of the dividend ; then divid-
ing 964 by 3, we have 1 remainder.
Now as the 3 cut off, is part of the remainder, we therefore
annex it to the 1. Ans. 321-^ hogsheads. Hence,

132. When there are ciphers on the right hand of the divisor.
