Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (186).
  • 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 186 ÷ 29 to determine how many times 29 fits fully into 186.

Step 3: Perform the Division

186 ÷ 29=6.4137931034483

  • Whole-number quotient: 6 (the number of times 29 fits completely into 186).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

6 x 29 = 174

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

186 - 174 = 12

  • Remainder: 12 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

186 ÷ 29 = 6 R 12

  • 29 fits into 186 exactly 6 times with a remainder of 12.
