Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (40).
  • 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 40 ÷ 18 to determine how many times 18 fits fully into 40.

Step 3: Perform the Division

40 ÷ 18=2.2222222222222

  • Whole-number quotient: 2 (the number of times 18 fits completely into 40).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

2 x 18 = 36

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

40 - 36 = 4

  • Remainder: 4 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

40 ÷ 18 = 2 R 4

  • 18 fits into 40 exactly 2 times with a remainder of 4.
