Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (117).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (8).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 117 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 117.

Step 3: Perform the Division

117 ÷ 8=14.625

  • Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 117).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

14 x 8 = 112

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

117 - 112 = 5

  • Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

117 ÷ 8 = 14 R 5

  • 8 fits into 117 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 5.
