Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (125).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (2).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 125 ÷ 2 to determine how many times 2 fits fully into 125.

Step 3: Perform the Division

125 ÷ 2=62.5

  • Whole-number quotient: 62 (the number of times 2 fits completely into 125).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

62 x 2 = 124

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

125 - 124 = 1

  • Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

125 ÷ 2 = 62 R 1

  • 2 fits into 125 exactly 62 times with a remainder of 1.
