The distributive property makes this a lot easier to answer. Dividing by 4 is the same as multiplying by 1/4, so: 1/4 x 104 104 equals 100 plus 4, so: 1/4 x (100 + 4) now distribute the 1/4: 1/4 * 100 + 1/4 * 4 multiplying by 1/4 is the same thing as dividing by 4, so: 100/4 + 4/4 100 divided by 4 is 25, and 4 divided by 4 is 1: 25 + 1 26 therefore 104 divided by 4 is 26

Using the distributive property, we can break down 104 into 100 and 4 and then divide each part by 4. This results in 25 from 100 and 1 from 4, which add up to 26. Therefore, 104 divided by 4 equals 26.
