Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (76).
  • 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 76 ÷ 28 to determine how many times 28 fits fully into 76.

Step 3: Perform the Division

76 ÷ 28=2.7142857142857

  • Whole-number quotient: 2 (the number of times 28 fits completely into 76).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

2 x 28 = 56

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

76 - 56 = 20

  • Remainder: 20 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

76 ÷ 28 = 2 R 20

  • 28 fits into 76 exactly 2 times with a remainder of 20.
