Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (187).
- 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 187 ÷ 7 to determine how many times 7 fits fully into 187.
Step 3: Perform the Division
187 ÷ 7=26.714285714286
- Whole-number quotient: 26 (the number of times 7 fits completely into 187).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
26 x 7 = 182
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
187 - 182 = 5
- Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
187 ÷ 7 = 26 R 5
- 7 fits into 187 exactly 26 times with a remainder of 5.
