Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (173).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (10).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 173 ÷ 10 to determine how many times 10 fits fully into 173.

Step 3: Perform the Division

173 ÷ 10=17.3

  • Whole-number quotient: 17 (the number of times 10 fits completely into 173).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

17 x 10 = 170

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

173 - 170 = 3

  • Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

173 ÷ 10 = 17 R 3

  • 10 fits into 173 exactly 17 times with a remainder of 3.
