Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (66).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (4).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 66 ÷ 4 to determine how many times 4 fits fully into 66.

Step 3: Perform the Division

66 ÷ 4=16.5

  • Whole-number quotient: 16 (the number of times 4 fits completely into 66).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

16 x 4 = 64

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

66 - 64 = 2

  • Remainder: 2 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

66 ÷ 4 = 16 R 2

  • 4 fits into 66 exactly 16 times with a remainder of 2.
