Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (260).
  • 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 260 ÷ 29 to determine how many times 29 fits fully into 260.

Step 3: Perform the Division

260 ÷ 29=8.9655172413793

  • Whole-number quotient: 8 (the number of times 29 fits completely into 260).

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:

260 - 232 = 28

  • Remainder: 28 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

260 ÷ 29 = 8 R 28

  • 29 fits into 260 exactly 8 times with a remainder of 28.
