What is the quotient of 24 divided by 6?

  1. 6

  2. 4

  3. 8

  4. 2

The correct answer is: 4

To find the quotient of 24 divided by 6, you can perform the division directly. When you take 24 and divide it by 6, you are essentially looking for how many times 6 fits into 24. Doing the division: 24 ÷ 6 = 4. This means that 6 can be subtracted from 24 a total of 4 times before reaching zero. Therefore, the quotient of 24 divided by 6 is 4. Understanding the other options is important as they represent different interpretations of the problem or incorrect calculations. For instance, 6, 8, and 2 do not correspond to the correct division of the two numbers given in the question, as they suggest different relationships or misunderstandings of the division process.
