Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (88).
  • 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 88 ÷ 23 to determine how many times 23 fits fully into 88.

Step 3: Perform the Division

88 ÷ 23=3.8260869565217

  • Whole-number quotient: 3 (the number of times 23 fits completely into 88).

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:

88 - 69 = 19

  • Remainder: 19 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

88 ÷ 23 = 3 R 19

  • 23 fits into 88 exactly 3 times with a remainder of 19.
