Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (128).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (15).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 128 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 128.

Step 3: Perform the Division

128 ÷ 15=8.5333333333333

  • Whole-number quotient: 8 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 128).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

8 x 15 = 120

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

128 - 120 = 8

  • Remainder: 8 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

128 ÷ 15 = 8 R 8

  • 15 fits into 128 exactly 8 times with a remainder of 8.
