Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (240).
  • 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 240 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 240.

Step 3: Perform the Division

240 ÷ 23=10.434782608696

  • Whole-number quotient: 10 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 240).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

10 x 23 = 230

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

240 - 230 = 10

  • Remainder: 10 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

240 ÷ 23 = 10 R 10

  • 23 fits into 240 exactly 10 times with a remainder of 10.
