Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (280).
  • 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 280 ÷ 20 to determine how many times 20 fits fully into 280.

Step 3: Perform the Division

280 ÷ 20=14

  • Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 20 fits completely into 280).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

14 x 20 = 280

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

280 - 280 = 0

  • Remainder: 0 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

280 ÷ 20 = 14 R 0

  • 20 fits into 280 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 0.
