Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (155).
  • 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 155 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 155.

Step 3: Perform the Division

155 ÷ 23=6.7391304347826

  • Whole-number quotient: 6 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 155).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

6 x 23 = 138

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

155 - 138 = 17

  • Remainder: 17 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

155 ÷ 23 = 6 R 17

  • 23 fits into 155 exactly 6 times with a remainder of 17.
