Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (263).
- 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 263 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 263.
Step 3: Perform the Division
263 ÷ 15=17.533333333333
- Whole-number quotient: 17 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 263).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
17 x 15 = 255
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
263 - 255 = 8
- Remainder: 8 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
263 ÷ 15 = 17 R 8
- 15 fits into 263 exactly 17 times with a remainder of 8.
