Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (243).
- 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 243 ÷ 17 to determine how many times 17 fits fully into 243.
Step 3: Perform the Division
243 ÷ 17=14.294117647059
- Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 17 fits completely into 243).
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:
243 - 238 = 5
- Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
243 ÷ 17 = 14 R 5
- 17 fits into 243 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 5.
