Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (221).
  • 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 221 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 221.

Step 3: Perform the Division

221 ÷ 23=9.6086956521739

  • Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 221).

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:

221 - 207 = 14

  • Remainder: 14 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

221 ÷ 23 = 9 R 14

  • 23 fits into 221 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 14.
