Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (243).
  • 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 243 ÷ 10 to determine how many times 10 fits fully into 243.

Step 3: Perform the Division

243 ÷ 10=24.3

  • Whole-number quotient: 24 (the number of times 10 fits completely into 243).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

24 x 10 = 240

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

243 - 240 = 3

  • Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

243 ÷ 10 = 24 R 3

  • 10 fits into 243 exactly 24 times with a remainder of 3.
