Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (277).
  • 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 277 ÷ 29 to determine how many times 29 fits fully into 277.

Step 3: Perform the Division

277 ÷ 29=9.551724137931

  • Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 29 fits completely into 277).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

9 x 29 = 261

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

277 - 261 = 16

  • Remainder: 16 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

277 ÷ 29 = 9 R 16

  • 29 fits into 277 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 16.
