Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (167).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (3).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 167 ÷ 3 to determine how many times 3 fits fully into 167.

Step 3: Perform the Division

167 ÷ 3=55.666666666667

  • Whole-number quotient: 55 (the number of times 3 fits completely into 167).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

55 x 3 = 165

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

167 - 165 = 2

  • Remainder: 2 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

167 ÷ 3 = 55 R 2

  • 3 fits into 167 exactly 55 times with a remainder of 2.
