Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (283).
  • 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 283 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 283.

Step 3: Perform the Division

283 ÷ 23=12.304347826087

  • Whole-number quotient: 12 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 283).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

12 x 23 = 276

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

283 - 276 = 7

  • Remainder: 7 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

283 ÷ 23 = 12 R 7

  • 23 fits into 283 exactly 12 times with a remainder of 7.
