Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (187).
- 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 187 ÷ 6 to determine how many times 6 fits fully into 187.
Step 3: Perform the Division
187 ÷ 6=31.166666666667
- Whole-number quotient: 31 (the number of times 6 fits completely into 187).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
31 x 6 = 186
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
187 - 186 = 1
- Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
187 ÷ 6 = 31 R 1
- 6 fits into 187 exactly 31 times with a remainder of 1.
