Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (273).
- 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 273 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 273.
Step 3: Perform the Division
273 ÷ 15=18.2
- Whole-number quotient: 18 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 273).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
18 x 15 = 270
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
273 - 270 = 3
- Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
273 ÷ 15 = 18 R 3
- 15 fits into 273 exactly 18 times with a remainder of 3.
