Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (31).
  • 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 31 ÷ 10 to determine how many times 10 fits fully into 31.

Step 3: Perform the Division

31 ÷ 10=3.1

  • Whole-number quotient: 3 (the number of times 10 fits completely into 31).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

3 x 10 = 30

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

31 - 30 = 1

  • Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

31 ÷ 10 = 3 R 1

  • 10 fits into 31 exactly 3 times with a remainder of 1.
