Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (265).
- 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 265 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 265.
Step 3: Perform the Division
265 ÷ 15=17.666666666667
- Whole-number quotient: 17 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 265).
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:
265 - 255 = 10
- Remainder: 10 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
265 ÷ 15 = 17 R 10
- 15 fits into 265 exactly 17 times with a remainder of 10.
