Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (165).
  • 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 165 ÷ 24 to determine how many times 24 fits fully into 165.

Step 3: Perform the Division

165 ÷ 24=6.875

  • Whole-number quotient: 6 (the number of times 24 fits completely into 165).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

6 x 24 = 144

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

165 - 144 = 21

  • Remainder: 21 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

165 ÷ 24 = 6 R 21

  • 24 fits into 165 exactly 6 times with a remainder of 21.
