Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (255).
  • 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 255 ÷ 29 to determine how many times 29 fits fully into 255.

Step 3: Perform the Division

255 ÷ 29=8.7931034482759

  • Whole-number quotient: 8 (the number of times 29 fits completely into 255).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

8 x 29 = 232

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

255 - 232 = 23

  • Remainder: 23 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

255 ÷ 29 = 8 R 23

  • 29 fits into 255 exactly 8 times with a remainder of 23.
