Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (222).
  • 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 222 ÷ 5 to determine how many times 5 fits fully into 222.

Step 3: Perform the Division

222 ÷ 5=44.4

  • Whole-number quotient: 44 (the number of times 5 fits completely into 222).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

44 x 5 = 220

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

222 - 220 = 2

  • Remainder: 2 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

222 ÷ 5 = 44 R 2

  • 5 fits into 222 exactly 44 times with a remainder of 2.
