Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (232).
- 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 232 ÷ 5 to determine how many times 5 fits fully into 232.
Step 3: Perform the Division
232 ÷ 5=46.4
- Whole-number quotient: 46 (the number of times 5 fits completely into 232).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
46 x 5 = 230
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
232 - 230 = 2
- Remainder: 2 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
232 ÷ 5 = 46 R 2
- 5 fits into 232 exactly 46 times with a remainder of 2.
