Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (217).
  • 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 217 ÷ 10 to determine how many times 10 fits fully into 217.

Step 3: Perform the Division

217 ÷ 10=21.7

  • Whole-number quotient: 21 (the number of times 10 fits completely into 217).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

21 x 10 = 210

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

217 - 210 = 7

  • Remainder: 7 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

217 ÷ 10 = 21 R 7

  • 10 fits into 217 exactly 21 times with a remainder of 7.
