Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (243).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (14).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 243 ÷ 14 to determine how many times 14 fits fully into 243.

Step 3: Perform the Division

243 ÷ 14=17.357142857143

  • Whole-number quotient: 17 (the number of times 14 fits completely into 243).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

17 x 14 = 238

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

243 - 238 = 5

  • Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

243 ÷ 14 = 17 R 5

  • 14 fits into 243 exactly 17 times with a remainder of 5.
