Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (291).
- 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 291 ÷ 16 to determine how many times 16 fits fully into 291.
Step 3: Perform the Division
291 ÷ 16=18.1875
- Whole-number quotient: 18 (the number of times 16 fits completely into 291).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
18 x 16 = 288
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
291 - 288 = 3
- Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
291 ÷ 16 = 18 R 3
- 16 fits into 291 exactly 18 times with a remainder of 3.
