Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (225).
  • 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 225 ÷ 12 to determine how many times 12 fits fully into 225.

Step 3: Perform the Division

225 ÷ 12=18.75

  • Whole-number quotient: 18 (the number of times 12 fits completely into 225).

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:

225 - 216 = 9

  • Remainder: 9 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

225 ÷ 12 = 18 R 9

  • 12 fits into 225 exactly 18 times with a remainder of 9.
