Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (252).
- 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 252 ÷ 12 to determine how many times 12 fits fully into 252.
Step 3: Perform the Division
252 ÷ 12=21
- Whole-number quotient: 21 (the number of times 12 fits completely into 252).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
21 x 12 = 252
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
252 - 252 = 0
- Remainder: 0 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
252 ÷ 12 = 21 R 0
- 12 fits into 252 exactly 21 times with a remainder of 0.
