Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (187).
- 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 187 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 187.
Step 3: Perform the Division
187 ÷ 8=23.375
- Whole-number quotient: 23 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 187).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
23 x 8 = 184
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
187 - 184 = 3
- Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
187 ÷ 8 = 23 R 3
- 8 fits into 187 exactly 23 times with a remainder of 3.
