Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (157).
  • 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 157 ÷ 11 to determine how many times 11 fits fully into 157.

Step 3: Perform the Division

157 ÷ 11=14.272727272727

  • Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 11 fits completely into 157).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

14 x 11 = 154

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

157 - 154 = 3

  • Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

157 ÷ 11 = 14 R 3

  • 11 fits into 157 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 3.
