Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (58).
  • 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 58 ÷ 3 to determine how many times 3 fits fully into 58.

Step 3: Perform the Division

58 ÷ 3=19.333333333333

  • Whole-number quotient: 19 (the number of times 3 fits completely into 58).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

19 x 3 = 57

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

58 - 57 = 1

  • Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

58 ÷ 3 = 19 R 1

  • 3 fits into 58 exactly 19 times with a remainder of 1.
