Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (89).
  • 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 89 ÷ 15 to determine how many times 15 fits fully into 89.

Step 3: Perform the Division

89 ÷ 15=5.9333333333333

  • Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 15 fits completely into 89).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

5 x 15 = 75

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

89 - 75 = 14

  • Remainder: 14 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

89 ÷ 15 = 5 R 14

  • 15 fits into 89 exactly 5 times with a remainder of 14.
