12

Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (36).
  • 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 36 ÷ 24 to determine how many times 24 fits fully into 36.

Step 3: Perform the Division

36 ÷ 24=1.5

  • Whole-number quotient: 1 (the number of times 24 fits completely into 36).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

1 x 24 = 24

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

36 - 24 = 12

  • Remainder: 12 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

36 ÷ 24 = 1 R 12

  • 24 fits into 36 exactly 1 times with a remainder of 12.
