Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (243).
  • 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 243 ÷ 24 to determine how many times 24 fits fully into 243.

Step 3: Perform the Division

243 ÷ 24=10.125

  • Whole-number quotient: 10 (the number of times 24 fits completely into 243).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

10 x 24 = 240

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

243 - 240 = 3

  • Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

243 ÷ 24 = 10 R 3

  • 24 fits into 243 exactly 10 times with a remainder of 3.
