Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (223).
  • 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 223 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 223.

Step 3: Perform the Division

223 ÷ 15=14.866666666667

  • Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 223).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

14 x 15 = 210

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

223 - 210 = 13

  • Remainder: 13 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

223 ÷ 15 = 14 R 13

  • 15 fits into 223 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 13.
