Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (161).
- Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (28).
- Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
- Remainder: The amount left over after division.
Step 2: Set Up the Division
Calculate 161 ÷ 28 to determine how many times 28 fits fully into 161.
Step 3: Perform the Division
161 ÷ 28=5.75
- Whole-number quotient: 5 (the number of times 28 fits completely into 161).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
5 x 28 = 140
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
161 - 140 = 21
- Remainder: 21 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
161 ÷ 28 = 5 R 21
- 28 fits into 161 exactly 5 times with a remainder of 21.
