Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (46).
  • 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 46 ÷ 7 to determine how many times 7 fits fully into 46.

Step 3: Perform the Division

46 ÷ 7=6.5714285714286

  • Whole-number quotient: 6 (the number of times 7 fits completely into 46).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

6 x 7 = 42

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

46 - 42 = 4

  • Remainder: 4 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

46 ÷ 7 = 6 R 4

  • 7 fits into 46 exactly 6 times with a remainder of 4.
