Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (285).
- 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 285 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 285.
Step 3: Perform the Division
285 ÷ 15=19
- Whole-number quotient: 19 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 285).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
19 x 15 = 285
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
285 - 285 = 0
- Remainder: 0 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
285 ÷ 15 = 19 R 0
- 15 fits into 285 exactly 19 times with a remainder of 0.
