Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (259).
- 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 259 ÷ 6 to determine how many times 6 fits fully into 259.
Step 3: Perform the Division
259 ÷ 6=43.166666666667
- Whole-number quotient: 43 (the number of times 6 fits completely into 259).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
43 x 6 = 258
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
259 - 258 = 1
- Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
259 ÷ 6 = 43 R 1
- 6 fits into 259 exactly 43 times with a remainder of 1.
