Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (280).
- 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 280 ÷ 24 to determine how many times 24 fits fully into 280.
Step 3: Perform the Division
280 ÷ 24=11.666666666667
- Whole-number quotient: 11 (the number of times 24 fits completely into 280).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
11 x 24 = 264
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
280 - 264 = 16
- Remainder: 16 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
280 ÷ 24 = 11 R 16
- 24 fits into 280 exactly 11 times with a remainder of 16.
