Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (217).
  • 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 217 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 217.

Step 3: Perform the Division

217 ÷ 23=9.4347826086957

  • Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 217).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

9 x 23 = 207

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

217 - 207 = 10

  • Remainder: 10 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

217 ÷ 23 = 9 R 10

  • 23 fits into 217 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 10.
