What approximate value should come in place of the question mark (?) in the following questions?
(Note: You are not expected to calculate the exact value)
`2534 div 23 = ?`

Options

A. 10
B. 210
C. 150
D. 110

Answer

To find the approximate value of \( 2534 \div 23 \), we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Estimate the numbers
First, we can round the numbers to make the division easier. We can round \( 23 \) to \( 20 \) because it is close to \( 23 \) and simplifies our calculations.

### Step 2: Set up the division
Now, we can set up the division using the rounded numbers:
\[ 2534 \div 20 \]

### Step 3: Perform the division
To divide \( 2534 \) by \( 20 \), we can simplify the division by first dividing \( 2534 \) by \( 10 \) and then multiplying the result by \( 2 \):
\[ 2534 \div 10 = 253.4 \]
Now, we divide \( 253.4 \) by \( 2 \):
\[ 253.4 \div 2 \approx 126.7 \]

### Step 4: Approximate the final answer
Since we are looking for an approximate value, we can round \( 126.7 \) to \( 130 \). However, we need to check the options provided in the question: \( 10, 210, 150, \) and \( 110 \). The closest option to \( 130 \) is \( 110 \).

### Conclusion
Thus, the approximate value of \( 2534 \div 23 \) is:
\[ \boxed{110} \]
