Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (74).
  • 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 74 ÷ 26 to determine how many times 26 fits fully into 74.

Step 3: Perform the Division

74 ÷ 26=2.8461538461538

  • Whole-number quotient: 2 (the number of times 26 fits completely into 74).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

2 x 26 = 52

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

74 - 52 = 22

  • Remainder: 22 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

74 ÷ 26 = 2 R 22

  • 26 fits into 74 exactly 2 times with a remainder of 22.
