Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (291).
  • 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 291 ÷ 18 to determine how many times 18 fits fully into 291.

Step 3: Perform the Division

291 ÷ 18=16.166666666667

  • Whole-number quotient: 16 (the number of times 18 fits completely into 291).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

16 x 18 = 288

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

291 - 288 = 3

  • Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

291 ÷ 18 = 16 R 3

  • 18 fits into 291 exactly 16 times with a remainder of 3.
