Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (141).
  • 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 141 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 141.

Step 3: Perform the Division

141 ÷ 8=17.625

  • Whole-number quotient: 17 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 141).

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:

141 - 136 = 5

  • Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

141 ÷ 8 = 17 R 5

  • 8 fits into 141 exactly 17 times with a remainder of 5.
