Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (124).
- 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 124 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 124.
Step 3: Perform the Division

- Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 124).
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:
124 - 115 = 9
- Remainder: 9 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
124 ÷ 23 = 5 R 9
