Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (204).
- 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 204 ÷ 21 to determine how many times 21 fits fully into 204.
Step 3: Perform the Division
204 ÷ 21=9.7142857142857
- Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 21 fits completely into 204).
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:
204 - 189 = 15
- Remainder: 15 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
204 ÷ 21 = 9 R 15
- 21 fits into 204 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 15.
