Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (240).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (18).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 240 ÷ 18 to determine how many times 18 fits fully into 240.

Step 3: Perform the Division

240 ÷ 18=13.333333333333

  • Whole-number quotient: 13 (the number of times 18 fits completely into 240).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

13 x 18 = 234

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

240 - 234 = 6

  • Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

240 ÷ 18 = 13 R 6

  • 18 fits into 240 exactly 13 times with a remainder of 6.
