Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (156).
  • 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 156 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 156.

Step 3: Perform the Division

156 ÷ 15=10.4

  • Whole-number quotient: 10 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 156).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

10 x 15 = 150

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

156 - 150 = 6

  • Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

156 ÷ 15 = 10 R 6

  • 15 fits into 156 exactly 10 times with a remainder of 6.
