Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (252).
  • 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 252 ÷ 17 to determine how many times 17 fits fully into 252.

Step 3: Perform the Division

252 ÷ 17=14.823529411765

  • Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 17 fits completely into 252).

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:

252 - 238 = 14

  • Remainder: 14 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

252 ÷ 17 = 14 R 14

  • 17 fits into 252 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 14.
