Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (247).
- 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 247 ÷ 21 to determine how many times 21 fits fully into 247.
Step 3: Perform the Division
247 ÷ 21=11.761904761905
- Whole-number quotient: 11 (the number of times 21 fits completely into 247).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
11 x 21 = 231
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
247 - 231 = 16
- Remainder: 16 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
247 ÷ 21 = 11 R 16
- 21 fits into 247 exactly 11 times with a remainder of 16.
