Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (50).
  • 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 50 ÷ 14 to determine how many times 14 fits fully into 50.

Step 3: Perform the Division

50 ÷ 14=3.5714285714286

  • Whole-number quotient: 3 (the number of times 14 fits completely into 50).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

3 x 14 = 42

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

50 - 42 = 8

  • Remainder: 8 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

50 ÷ 14 = 3 R 8

  • 14 fits into 50 exactly 3 times with a remainder of 8.
