Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (86).
  • 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 86 ÷ 2 to determine how many times 2 fits fully into 86.

Step 3: Perform the Division

86 ÷ 2=43

  • Whole-number quotient: 43 (the number of times 2 fits completely into 86).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

43 x 2 = 86

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

86 - 86 = 0

  • Remainder: 0 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

86 ÷ 2 = 43 R 0

  • 2 fits into 86 exactly 43 times with a remainder of 0.
