Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (123).
- Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (24).
- Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
- Remainder: The amount left over after division.
Step 2: Set Up the Division
Calculate 123 ÷ 24 to determine how many times 24 fits fully into 123.
Step 3: Perform the Division
123 ÷ 24=5.125
- Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 24 fits completely into 123).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
5 x 24 = 120
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
123 - 120 = 3
- Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
123 ÷ 24 = 5 R 3
- 24 fits into 123 exactly 5 times with a remainder of 3.
