Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (62).
- 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 62 ÷ 12 to determine how many times 12 fits fully into 62.

- Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 12 fits completely into 62).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
5 x 12 = 60
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
62 - 60 = 2
- Remainder: 2 (the amount left over).
