Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (285).
- 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 285 ÷ 27 to determine how many times 27 fits fully into 285.
Step 3: Perform the Division
285 ÷ 27=10.555555555556
- Whole-number quotient: 10 (the number of times 27 fits completely into 285).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
10 x 27 = 270
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
285 - 270 = 15
- Remainder: 15 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
285 ÷ 27 = 10 R 15
