Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (139).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (26).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 139 ÷ 26 to determine how many times 26 fits fully into 139.

Step 3: Perform the Division

139 ÷ 26=5.3461538461538

  • Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 26 fits completely into 139).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

5 x 26 = 130

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

139 - 130 = 9

  • Remainder: 9 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

139 ÷ 26 = 5 R 9

  • 26 fits into 139 exactly 5 times with a remainder of 9.
