Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (62).
  • 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 62 ÷ 20 to determine how many times 20 fits fully into 62.

Step 3: Perform the Division

62 ÷ 20=3.1

  • Whole-number quotient: 3 (the number of times 20 fits completely into 62).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

3 x 20 = 60

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

62 - 60 = 2

  • Remainder: 2 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

62 ÷ 20 = 3 R 2

  • 20 fits into 62 exactly 3 times with a remainder of 2.
