Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (138).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (11).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 138 ÷ 11 to determine how many times 11 fits fully into 138.

Step 3: Perform the Division

138 ÷ 11=12.545454545455

  • Whole-number quotient: 12 (the number of times 11 fits completely into 138).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

12 x 11 = 132

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

138 - 132 = 6

  • Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

138 ÷ 11 = 12 R 6

  • 11 fits into 138 exactly 12 times with a remainder of 6.
