Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (254).
  • 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 254 ÷ 27 to determine how many times 27 fits fully into 254.

Step 3: Perform the Division

254 ÷ 27=9.4074074074074

  • Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 27 fits completely into 254).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

9 x 27 = 243

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

254 - 243 = 11

  • Remainder: 11 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

254 ÷ 27 = 9 R 11

  • 27 fits into 254 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 11.
