$1$

Explanation: Arrange the numbers in division form:

Step 2

400 is divisible by 5 but since, 80 × 5 = 400. we go for it. subtract 400 - 400 = 0 and write 80 in quotient.

$2$

Explanation: Here, the first digit of the dividend is 400, 400 is divisible by 5. Subtract 400 - 400 = 0 and write quotient is 80.

Step 3

Therefore the quotient = 80. and the remainder is 0.

$3$

Explanation: There is only one quotient..because there is no another number to divisible.
