Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (288).
  • 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 288 ÷ 28 to determine how many times 28 fits fully into 288.

Step 3: Perform the Division

288 ÷ 28=10.285714285714

  • Whole-number quotient: 10 (the number of times 28 fits completely into 288).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

10 x 28 = 280

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

288 - 280 = 8

  • Remainder: 8 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

288 ÷ 28 = 10 R 8

  • 28 fits into 288 exactly 10 times with a remainder of 8.
