Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (132).
  • 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 132 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 132.

Step 3: Perform the Division

132 ÷ 8=16.5

  • Whole-number quotient: 16 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 132).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

16 x 8 = 128

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

132 - 128 = 4

  • Remainder: 4 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

132 ÷ 8 = 16 R 4

  • 8 fits into 132 exactly 16 times with a remainder of 4.
