Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (252).
- 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 252 ÷ 16 to determine how many times 16 fits fully into 252.
Step 3: Perform the Division
252 ÷ 16=15.75
- Whole-number quotient: 15 (the number of times 16 fits completely into 252).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
15 x 16 = 240
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
252 - 240 = 12
- Remainder: 12 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
252 ÷ 16 = 15 R 12
- 16 fits into 252 exactly 15 times with a remainder of 12.
