Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (168).
  • 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 168 ÷ 3 to determine how many times 3 fits fully into 168.

Step 3: Perform the Division

168 ÷ 3=56

  • Whole-number quotient: 56 (the number of times 3 fits completely into 168).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

56 x 3 = 168

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

168 - 168 = 0

  • Remainder: 0 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

168 ÷ 3 = 56 R 0

  • 3 fits into 168 exactly 56 times with a remainder of 0.
