Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (241).
  • 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 241 ÷ 17 to determine how many times 17 fits fully into 241.

Step 3: Perform the Division

241 ÷ 17=14.176470588235

  • Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 17 fits completely into 241).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

14 x 17 = 238

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

241 - 238 = 3

  • Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

241 ÷ 17 = 14 R 3

  • 17 fits into 241 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 3.
