Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (138).
- 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 138 ÷ 7 to determine how many times 7 fits fully into 138.
Step 3: Perform the Division
138 ÷ 7=19.714285714286
- Whole-number quotient: 19 (the number of times 7 fits completely into 138).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
19 x 7 = 133
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
138 - 133 = 5
- Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
138 ÷ 7 = 19 R 5
- 7 fits into 138 exactly 19 times with a remainder of 5.
