Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (121).
  • 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 121 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 121.

Step 3: Perform the Division

121 ÷ 8=15.125

  • Whole-number quotient: 15 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 121).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

15 x 8 = 120

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

121 - 120 = 1

  • Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

121 ÷ 8 = 15 R 1

  • 8 fits into 121 exactly 15 times with a remainder of 1.
