Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (259).
- 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 259 ÷ 14 to determine how many times 14 fits fully into 259.
Step 3: Perform the Division
259 ÷ 14=18.5
- Whole-number quotient: 18 (the number of times 14 fits completely into 259).
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:
259 - 252 = 7
- Remainder: 7 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
259 ÷ 14 = 18 R 7
- 14 fits into 259 exactly 18 times with a remainder of 7.
