Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (83).
  • 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 83 ÷ 16 to determine how many times 16 fits fully into 83.

Step 3: Perform the Division

83 ÷ 16=5.1875

  • Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 16 fits completely into 83).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

5 x 16 = 80

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

83 - 80 = 3

  • Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

83 ÷ 16 = 5 R 3

  • 16 fits into 83 exactly 5 times with a remainder of 3.
