Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (246).
  • 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 246 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 246.

Step 3: Perform the Division

246 ÷ 23=10.695652173913

  • Whole-number quotient: 10 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 246).

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:

246 - 230 = 16

  • Remainder: 16 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

246 ÷ 23 = 10 R 16

  • 23 fits into 246 exactly 10 times with a remainder of 16.
