Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (66).
  • 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 66 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 66.

Step 3: Perform the Division

66 ÷ 23=2.8695652173913

  • Whole-number quotient: 2 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 66).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

2 x 23 = 46

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

66 - 46 = 20

  • Remainder: 20 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

66 ÷ 23 = 2 R 20

  • 23 fits into 66 exactly 2 times with a remainder of 20.
