Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (283).
- 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 283 ÷ 5 to determine how many times 5 fits fully into 283.
Step 3: Perform the Division
283 ÷ 5=56.6
- Whole-number quotient: 56 (the number of times 5 fits completely into 283).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
56 x 5 = 280
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
283 - 280 = 3
- Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
283 ÷ 5 = 56 R 3
- 5 fits into 283 exactly 56 times with a remainder of 3.
