Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (286).
  • 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 286 ÷ 27 to determine how many times 27 fits fully into 286.

Step 3: Perform the Division

286 ÷ 27=10.592592592593

  • Whole-number quotient: 10 (the number of times 27 fits completely into 286).

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:

286 - 270 = 16

  • Remainder: 16 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

286 ÷ 27 = 10 R 16

  • 27 fits into 286 exactly 10 times with a remainder of 16.
