Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (54).
  • 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 54 ÷ 10 to determine how many times 10 fits fully into 54.

Step 3: Perform the Division

54 ÷ 10=5.4

  • Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 10 fits completely into 54).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

5 x 10 = 50

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

54 - 50 = 4

  • Remainder: 4 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

54 ÷ 10 = 5 R 4

  • 10 fits into 54 exactly 5 times with a remainder of 4.
