Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (248).
  • 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 248 ÷ 17 to determine how many times 17 fits fully into 248.

Step 3: Perform the Division

248 ÷ 17=14.588235294118

  • Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 17 fits completely into 248).

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:

248 - 238 = 10

  • Remainder: 10 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

248 ÷ 17 = 14 R 10

  • 17 fits into 248 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 10.
