Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (60).
  • 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 60 ÷ 27 to determine how many times 27 fits fully into 60.

Step 3: Perform the Division

60 ÷ 27=2.2222222222222

  • Whole-number quotient: 2 (the number of times 27 fits completely into 60).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

2 x 27 = 54

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

60 - 54 = 6

  • Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

60 ÷ 27 = 2 R 6

  • 27 fits into 60 exactly 2 times with a remainder of 6.
