Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (279).
- Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (13).
- Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
- Remainder: The amount left over after division.
Step 2: Set Up the Division
Calculate 279 ÷ 13 to determine how many times 13 fits fully into 279.
Step 3: Perform the Division
279 ÷ 13=21.461538461538
- Whole-number quotient: 21 (the number of times 13 fits completely into 279).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
21 x 13 = 273
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
279 - 273 = 6
- Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
279 ÷ 13 = 21 R 6
- 13 fits into 279 exactly 21 times with a remainder of 6.
