Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (47).
- 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 47 ÷ 5 to determine how many times 5 fits fully into 47.
Step 3: Perform the Division
47 ÷ 5=9.4
- Whole-number quotient: 9 (the number of times 5 fits completely into 47).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
9 x 5 = 45
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
47 - 45 = 2
- Remainder: 2 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
47 ÷ 5 = 9 R 2
- 5 fits into 47 exactly 9 times with a remainder of 2.
