What is 1000 divided by 25?

To determine the result of dividing 1000 by 25, you can set up the division as follows:

First, consider how many times 25 fits into 1000. A straightforward way to solve this is by using basic long division or by breaking it down into manageable steps.

One method is to simplify the division by recognizing that you can multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same factor to make the calculation easier. For example, if you multiply both numbers by 4, you obtain 4000 divided by 100. This simplifies the problem since it's easier to divide 4000 by 100.

When you perform the division directly, 1000 divided by 25 equals 40:

• Start by considering how many times 25 goes into the first part of 1000, which is 100. We find that 25 goes into 100 exactly 4 times (since 25 x 4 = 100).

• Then, consider the remaining zeros in 1000, because there are two additional zeros (1000 = 100 x 10), and since 25 goes into 100 4 times, it will go into 1000 a total of 40 times (4 x 10
