Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (217).
  • 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 217 ÷ 26 to determine how many times 26 fits fully into 217.

Step 3: Perform the Division

217 ÷ 26=8.3461538461538

  • Whole-number quotient: 8 (the number of times 26 fits completely into 217).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

8 x 26 = 208

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

217 - 208 = 9

  • Remainder: 9 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

217 ÷ 26 = 8 R 9

  • 26 fits into 217 exactly 8 times with a remainder of 9.
