Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (153).
  • 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 153 ÷ 7 to determine how many times 7 fits fully into 153.

Step 3: Perform the Division

153 ÷ 7=21.857142857143

  • Whole-number quotient: 21 (the number of times 7 fits completely into 153).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

21 x 7 = 147

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

153 - 147 = 6

  • Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

153 ÷ 7 = 21 R 6

  • 7 fits into 153 exactly 21 times with a remainder of 6.
