Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (128).
- Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (5).
- Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
- Remainder: The amount left over after division.
Step 2: Set Up the Division
Calculate 128 ÷ 5 to determine how many times 5 fits fully into 128.
Step 3: Perform the Division
128 ÷ 5=25.6
- Whole-number quotient: 25 (the number of times 5 fits completely into 128).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
25 x 5 = 125
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
128 - 125 = 3
- Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
128 ÷ 5 = 25 R 3
- 5 fits into 128 exactly 25 times with a remainder of 3.
