Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (117).
  • 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 117 ÷ 17 to determine how many times 17 fits fully into 117.

Step 3: Perform the Division

117 ÷ 17=6.8823529411765

  • Whole-number quotient: 6 (the number of times 17 fits completely into 117).

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:

117 - 102 = 15

  • Remainder: 15 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

117 ÷ 17 = 6 R 15

  • 17 fits into 117 exactly 6 times with a remainder of 15.
