Correct answer: C

To find the quotient of 7561 divided by 3, we perform long division step by step.

Step-by-Step Calculation

  1. Divide the first digit:

    • Divide 7 by 3. 3 goes into 7 two times (3 * 2 = 6).

    • 7 - 6 = 1.

    • Bring down the next digit (5), making it 15.

  2. Divide the next digits:

    • Divide 15 by 3. 3 goes into 15 five times exactly (3 * 5 = 15).

    • 15 - 15 = 0.

    • Bring down the next digit (6).

  3. Complete the division:

    • Divide 6 by 3. 3 goes into 6 two times exactly (3 * 2 = 6).

    • 6 - 6 = 0.

    • Bring down the final digit (1).

    • Since 3 cannot go into 1, we place a 0 in the quotient.

The final quotient is 2520, with a remainder of 1.
