Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (240).
- 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 240 ÷ 26 to determine how many times 26 fits fully into 240.
Step 3: Perform the Division
240 ÷ 26=9.2307692307692
- Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 26 fits completely into 240).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
9 x 26 = 234
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
240 - 234 = 6
- Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
240 ÷ 26 = 9 R 6
- 26 fits into 240 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 6.
