Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (76).
  • 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 76 ÷ 6 to determine how many times 6 fits fully into 76.

Step 3: Perform the Division

76 ÷ 6=12.666666666667

  • Whole-number quotient: 12 (the number of times 6 fits completely into 76).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

12 x 6 = 72

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

76 - 72 = 4

  • Remainder: 4 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

76 ÷ 6 = 12 R 4

  • 6 fits into 76 exactly 12 times with a remainder of 4.
