Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (273).
  • 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 273 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 273.

Step 3: Perform the Division

273 ÷ 23=11.869565217391

  • Whole-number quotient: 11 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 273).

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:

273 - 253 = 20

  • Remainder: 20 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

273 ÷ 23 = 11 R 20

  • 23 fits into 273 exactly 11 times with a remainder of 20.
