Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (247).
- 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 247 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 247.
Step 3: Perform the Division
247 ÷ 15=16.466666666667
- Whole-number quotient: 16 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 247).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
16 x 15 = 240
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
247 - 240 = 7
- Remainder: 7 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
247 ÷ 15 = 16 R 7
- 15 fits into 247 exactly 16 times with a remainder of 7.
