Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (140).
- 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 140 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 140.
Step 3: Perform the Division
140 ÷ 8=17.5
- Whole-number quotient: 17 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 140).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
17 x 8 = 136
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
140 - 136 = 4
- Remainder: 4 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
140 ÷ 8 = 17 R 4
- 8 fits into 140 exactly 17 times with a remainder of 4.
