Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (196).
  • 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 196 ÷ 21 to determine how many times 21 fits fully into 196.

Step 3: Perform the Division

196 ÷ 21=9.3333333333333

  • Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 21 fits completely into 196).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

9 x 21 = 189

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

196 - 189 = 7

  • Remainder: 7 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

196 ÷ 21 = 9 R 7

  • 21 fits into 196 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 7.
