Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (286).
- 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 286 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 286.
Step 3: Perform the Division
286 ÷ 15=19.066666666667
- Whole-number quotient: 19 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 286).
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:
286 - 285 = 1
- Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
286 ÷ 15 = 19 R 1
- 15 fits into 286 exactly 19 times with a remainder of 1.
