Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (66).
  • 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 66 ÷ 27 to determine how many times 27 fits fully into 66.

Step 3: Perform the Division

66 ÷ 27=2.4444444444444

  • Whole-number quotient: 2 (the number of times 27 fits completely into 66).

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:

66 - 54 = 12

  • Remainder: 12 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

66 ÷ 27 = 2 R 12

  • 27 fits into 66 exactly 2 times with a remainder of 12.
