Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (161).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (6).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 161 ÷ 6 to determine how many times 6 fits fully into 161.

Step 3: Perform the Division

161 ÷ 6=26.833333333333

  • Whole-number quotient: 26 (the number of times 6 fits completely into 161).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

26 x 6 = 156

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

161 - 156 = 5

  • Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

161 ÷ 6 = 26 R 5

  • 6 fits into 161 exactly 26 times with a remainder of 5.
