The quotient of 18 and 1000 is calculated by dividing 18 by 1000.
To perform this division, we set it up as follows:
18 ÷ 1000 = 0.018
When you divide a smaller number by a larger number, the result will be a decimal less than 1. In this case, since 18 is much smaller than 1000, the quotient is 0.018.
This means that if you take 18 and try to split it into 1000 equal parts, each part would be 0.018.
