Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (124).
- 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 124 ÷ 17 to determine how many times 17 fits fully into 124.
Step 3: Perform the Division
124 ÷ 17=7.2941176470588
- Whole-number quotient: 7 (the number of times 17 fits completely into 124).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
7 x 17 = 119
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
124 - 119 = 5
- Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
124 ÷ 17 = 7 R 5
