Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (179).
- Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (12).
- Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
- Remainder: The amount left over after division.
Step 2: Set Up the Division
Calculate 179 ÷ 12 to determine how many times 12 fits fully into 179.
Step 3: Perform the Division
179 ÷ 12=14.916666666667
- Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 12 fits completely into 179).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
14 x 12 = 168
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
179 - 168 = 11
- Remainder: 11 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
179 ÷ 12 = 14 R 11
- 12 fits into 179 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 11.
