Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (119).
  • 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 119 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 119.

Step 3: Perform the Division

119 ÷ 8=14.875

  • Whole-number quotient: 14 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 119).

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:

119 - 112 = 7

  • Remainder: 7 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

119 ÷ 8 = 14 R 7

  • 8 fits into 119 exactly 14 times with a remainder of 7.
