A three digit number is divided by a one-digit number. The quotient is a two digit number. What can you say about the dividend and the divisor? Thank you kindly.

A dividend is is a number to be divided and a divisor is a number to be divided into a dividend. Here the dividend is a three digit number and is divided by a one digit divisor. The quotient or result is a two digit number as stated. So in math terms, we can state that the dividend is a three digit number and that the divisor is a one digit number.
