Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (221).
- 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 221 ÷ 12 to determine how many times 12 fits fully into 221.
Step 3: Perform the Division
221 ÷ 12=18.416666666667
- Whole-number quotient: 18 (the number of times 12 fits completely into 221).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
18 x 12 = 216
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
221 - 216 = 5
- Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
221 ÷ 12 = 18 R 5
- 12 fits into 221 exactly 18 times with a remainder of 5.
