Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (282).
  • 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 282 ÷ 16 to determine how many times 16 fits fully into 282.

Step 3: Perform the Division

282 ÷ 16=17.625

  • Whole-number quotient: 17 (the number of times 16 fits completely into 282).

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:

282 - 272 = 10

  • Remainder: 10 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

282 ÷ 16 = 17 R 10

  • 16 fits into 282 exactly 17 times with a remainder of 10.
