Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (224).
  • 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 224 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 224.

Step 3: Perform the Division

224 ÷ 23=9.7391304347826

  • Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 224).

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:

224 - 207 = 17

  • Remainder: 17 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

224 ÷ 23 = 9 R 17

  • 23 fits into 224 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 17.
