Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (158).
- 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 158 ÷ 17 to determine how many times 17 fits fully into 158.
Step 3: Perform the Division
158 ÷ 17=9.2941176470588

Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
9 x 17 = 153
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
158 - 153 = 5
- Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).
