Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (271).
- 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 271 ÷ 17 to determine how many times 17 fits fully into 271.
Step 3: Perform the Division
271 ÷ 17=15.941176470588
- Whole-number quotient: 15 (the number of times 17 fits completely into 271).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
15 x 17 = 255
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
271 - 255 = 16
- Remainder: 16 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
271 ÷ 17 = 15 R 16
- 17 fits into 271 exactly 15 times with a remainder of 16.
