Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (78).
- 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 78 ÷ 3 to determine how many times 3 fits fully into 78.
Step 3: Perform the Division
78 ÷ 3=26
- Whole-number quotient: 26 (the number of times 3 fits completely into 78).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
26 x 3 = 78
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
78 - 78 = 0
- Remainder: 0 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
78 ÷ 3 = 26 R 0
- 3 fits into 78 exactly 26 times with a remainder of 0.
