Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (87).
  • 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 87 ÷ 10 to determine how many times 10 fits fully into 87.

Step 3: Perform the Division

87 ÷ 10=8.7

  • Whole-number quotient: 8 (the number of times 10 fits completely into 87).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

8 x 10 = 80

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

87 - 80 = 7

  • Remainder: 7 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

87 ÷ 10 = 8 R 7

  • 10 fits into 87 exactly 8 times with a remainder of 7.
