Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (204).
  • 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 204 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 204.

Step 3: Perform the Division

204 ÷ 15=13.6

  • Whole-number quotient: 13 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 204).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

13 x 15 = 195

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

204 - 195 = 9

  • Remainder: 9 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

204 ÷ 15 = 13 R 9

  • 15 fits into 204 exactly 13 times with a remainder of 9.
