Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (233).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (16).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 233 ÷ 16 to determine how many times 16 fits fully into 233.

Step 3: Perform the Division

233 ÷ 16=14.5625

  • Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 16 fits completely into 233).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

14 x 16 = 224

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

233 - 224 = 9

  • Remainder: 9 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

233 ÷ 16 = 14 R 9

  • 16 fits into 233 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 9.
