Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (138).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (29).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 138 ÷ 29 to determine how many times 29 fits fully into 138.

Step 3: Perform the Division

138 ÷ 29=4.7586206896552

  • Whole-number quotient: 4 (the number of times 29 fits completely into 138).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

4 x 29 = 116

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

138 - 116 = 22

  • Remainder: 22 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

138 ÷ 29 = 4 R 22

  • 29 fits into 138 exactly 4 times with a remainder of 22.
