Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (155).
  • 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 155 ÷ 21 to determine how many times 21 fits fully into 155.

Step 3: Perform the Division

155 ÷ 21=7.3809523809524

  • Whole-number quotient: 7 (the number of times 21 fits completely into 155).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

7 x 21 = 147

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

155 - 147 = 8

  • Remainder: 8 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

155 ÷ 21 = 7 R 8

  • 21 fits into 155 exactly 7 times with a remainder of 8.
