Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (256).
- 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 256 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 256.
Step 3: Perform the Division
256 ÷ 23=11.130434782609
- Whole-number quotient: 11 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 256).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
11 x 23 = 253
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
256 - 253 = 3
- Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
256 ÷ 23 = 11 R 3
- 23 fits into 256 exactly 11 times with a remainder of 3.
