Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (31).
  • 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 31 ÷ 14 to determine how many times 14 fits fully into 31.

Step 3: Perform the Division

31 ÷ 14=2.2142857142857

  • Whole-number quotient: 2 (the number of times 14 fits completely into 31).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

2 x 14 = 28

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

31 - 28 = 3

  • Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

31 ÷ 14 = 2 R 3

  • 14 fits into 31 exactly 2 times with a remainder of 3.
