Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (118).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (20).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 118 ÷ 20 to determine how many times 20 fits fully into 118.

Step 3: Perform the Division

118 ÷ 20=5.9

  • Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 20 fits completely into 118).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

5 x 20 = 100

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

118 - 100 = 18

  • Remainder: 18 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

118 ÷ 20 = 5 R 18

  • 20 fits into 118 exactly 5 times with a remainder of 18.
