Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (125).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (7).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 125 ÷ 7 to determine how many times 7 fits fully into 125.

Step 3: Perform the Division

125 ÷ 7=17.857142857143

  • Whole-number quotient: 17 (the number of times 7 fits completely into 125).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

17 x 7 = 119

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

125 - 119 = 6

  • Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

125 ÷ 7 = 17 R 6

  • 7 fits into 125 exactly 17 times with a remainder of 6.
