Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (288).
- 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 288 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 288.
Step 3: Perform the Division
288 ÷ 15=19.2
- Whole-number quotient: 19 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 288).
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:
288 - 285 = 3
- Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
288 ÷ 15 = 19 R 3
- 15 fits into 288 exactly 19 times with a remainder of 3.
