Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (185).
- 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 185 ÷ 21 to determine how many times 21 fits fully into 185.
Step 3: Perform the Division
185 ÷ 21=8.8095238095238
- Whole-number quotient: 8 (the number of times 21 fits completely into 185).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
8 x 21 = 168
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
185 - 168 = 17
- Remainder: 17 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
185 ÷ 21 = 8 R 17
- 21 fits into 185 exactly 8 times with a remainder of 17.
