Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (129).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (27).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 129 ÷ 27 to determine how many times 27 fits fully into 129.

Step 3: Perform the Division

129 ÷ 27=4.7777777777778

  • Whole-number quotient: 4 (the number of times 27 fits completely into 129).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

4 x 27 = 108

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

129 - 108 = 21

  • Remainder: 21 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

129 ÷ 27 = 4 R 21

  • 27 fits into 129 exactly 4 times with a remainder of 21.
