Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (218).
  • 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 218 ÷ 28 to determine how many times 28 fits fully into 218.

Step 3: Perform the Division

218 ÷ 28=7.7857142857143

  • Whole-number quotient: 7 (the number of times 28 fits completely into 218).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

7 x 28 = 196

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

218 - 196 = 22

  • Remainder: 22 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

218 ÷ 28 = 7 R 22

  • 28 fits into 218 exactly 7 times with a remainder of 22.
