Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (84).
  • 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 84 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 84.

Step 3: Perform the Division

84 ÷ 23=3.6521739130435

  • Whole-number quotient: 3 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 84).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

3 x 23 = 69

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

84 - 69 = 15

  • Remainder: 15 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

84 ÷ 23 = 3 R 15

  • 23 fits into 84 exactly 3 times with a remainder of 15.
