Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (138).
- 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 138 ÷ 20 to determine how many times 20 fits fully into 138.
Step 3: Perform the Division
138 ÷ 20=6.9
- Whole-number quotient: 6 (the number of times 20 fits completely into 138).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
6 x 20 = 120
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
138 - 120 = 18
- Remainder: 18 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
138 ÷ 20 = 6 R 18
- 20 fits into 138 exactly 6 times with a remainder of 18.
