Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (297).
- 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 297 ÷ 5 to determine how many times 5 fits fully into 297.
Step 3: Perform the Division
297 ÷ 5=59.4
- Whole-number quotient: 59 (the number of times 5 fits completely into 297).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
59 x 5 = 295
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
297 - 295 = 2
- Remainder: 2 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
297 ÷ 5 = 59 R 2
- 5 fits into 297 exactly 59 times with a remainder of 2.
