Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (141).
  • 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 141 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 141.

Step 3: Perform the Division

141 ÷ 15=9.4

  • Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 141).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

9 x 15 = 135

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

141 - 135 = 6

  • Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

141 ÷ 15 = 9 R 6

  • 15 fits into 141 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 6.
