Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (104).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (17).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 104 ÷ 17 to determine how many times 17 fits fully into 104.

Step 3: Perform the Division

104 ÷ 17=6.1176470588235

  • Whole-number quotient: 6 (the number of times 17 fits completely into 104).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

6 x 17 = 102

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

104 - 102 = 2

  • Remainder: 2 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

104 ÷ 17 = 6 R 2

  • 17 fits into 104 exactly 6 times with a remainder of 2.
