Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (114).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (21).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 114 ÷ 21 to determine how many times 21 fits fully into 114.

Step 3: Perform the Division

114 ÷ 21=5.4285714285714

  • Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 21 fits completely into 114).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

5 x 21 = 105

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

114 - 105 = 9

  • Remainder: 9 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

114 ÷ 21 = 5 R 9

  • 21 fits into 114 exactly 5 times with a remainder of 9.
