Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (256).
- 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 256 ÷ 27 to determine how many times 27 fits fully into 256.
Step 3: Perform the Division
256 ÷ 27=9.4814814814815
- Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 27 fits completely into 256).
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:
256 - 243 = 13
- Remainder: 13 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
256 ÷ 27 = 9 R 13
- 27 fits into 256 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 13.
