Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (78).
  • 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 78 ÷ 10 to determine how many times 10 fits fully into 78.

Step 3: Perform the Division

78 ÷ 10=7.8

  • Whole-number quotient: 7 (the number of times 10 fits completely into 78).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

7 x 10 = 70

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

78 - 70 = 8

  • Remainder: 8 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

78 ÷ 10 = 7 R 8

  • 10 fits into 78 exactly 7 times with a remainder of 8.
