Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (273).
  • 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 273 ÷ 16 to determine how many times 16 fits fully into 273.

Step 3: Perform the Division

273 ÷ 16=17.0625

  • Whole-number quotient: 17 (the number of times 16 fits completely into 273).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

17 x 16 = 272

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

273 - 272 = 1

  • Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

273 ÷ 16 = 17 R 1

  • 16 fits into 273 exactly 17 times with a remainder of 1.
