Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (253).
  • 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 253 ÷ 14 to determine how many times 14 fits fully into 253.

Step 3: Perform the Division

253 ÷ 14=18.071428571429

  • Whole-number quotient: 18 (the number of times 14 fits completely into 253).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

18 x 14 = 252

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

253 - 252 = 1

  • Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

253 ÷ 14 = 18 R 1

  • 14 fits into 253 exactly 18 times with a remainder of 1.
