Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (168).
  • 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 168 ÷ 17 to determine how many times 17 fits fully into 168.

Step 3: Perform the Division

168 ÷ 17=9.8823529411765

  • Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 17 fits completely into 168).

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:

168 - 153 = 15

  • Remainder: 15 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

168 ÷ 17 = 9 R 15

  • 17 fits into 168 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 15.
