Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (119).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (23).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 119 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 119.

Step 3: Perform the Division

119 ÷ 23=5.1739130434783

  • Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 119).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

5 x 23 = 115

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

119 - 115 = 4

  • Remainder: 4 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

119 ÷ 23 = 5 R 4

  • 23 fits into 119 exactly 5 times with a remainder of 4.
