Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (287).
- 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 287 ÷ 20 to determine how many times 20 fits fully into 287.
Step 3: Perform the Division
287 ÷ 20=14.35
- Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 20 fits completely into 287).
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:
287 - 280 = 7
- Remainder: 7 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
287 ÷ 20 = 14 R 7
- 20 fits into 287 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 7.
