Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (229).
  • 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 229 ÷ 29 to determine how many times 29 fits fully into 229.

Step 3: Perform the Division

229 ÷ 29=7.8965517241379

  • Whole-number quotient: 7 (the number of times 29 fits completely into 229).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

7 x 29 = 203

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

229 - 203 = 26

  • Remainder: 26 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

229 ÷ 29 = 7 R 26

  • 29 fits into 229 exactly 7 times with a remainder of 26.
