Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (285).
  • 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 285 ÷ 13 to determine how many times 13 fits fully into 285.

Step 3: Perform the Division

285 ÷ 13=21.923076923077

  • Whole-number quotient: 21 (the number of times 13 fits completely into 285).

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:

285 - 273 = 12

  • Remainder: 12 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

285 ÷ 13 = 21 R 12

  • 13 fits into 285 exactly 21 times with a remainder of 12.
