Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (81).
- 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 81 ÷ 5 to determine how many times 5 fits fully into 81.
Step 3: Perform the Division
81 ÷ 5=16.2
- Whole-number quotient: 16 (the number of times 5 fits completely into 81).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
16 x 5 = 80
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
81 - 80 = 1
- Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
81 ÷ 5 = 16 R 1
- 5 fits into 81 exactly 16 times with a remainder of 1.
