Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (231).
  • 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 231 ÷ 10 to determine how many times 10 fits fully into 231.

Step 3: Perform the Division

231 ÷ 10=23.1

  • Whole-number quotient: 23 (the number of times 10 fits completely into 231).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

23 x 10 = 230

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

231 - 230 = 1

  • Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

231 ÷ 10 = 23 R 1

  • 10 fits into 231 exactly 23 times with a remainder of 1.
