Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (231).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (25).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 231 ÷ 25 to determine how many times 25 fits fully into 231.

Step 3: Perform the Division

231 ÷ 25=9.24

  • Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 25 fits completely into 231).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

9 x 25 = 225

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

231 - 225 = 6

  • Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

231 ÷ 25 = 9 R 6

  • 25 fits into 231 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 6.
