Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (215).
  • 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 215 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 215.

Step 3: Perform the Division

215 ÷ 8=26.875

  • Whole-number quotient: 26 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 215).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

26 x 8 = 208

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

215 - 208 = 7

  • Remainder: 7 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

215 ÷ 8 = 26 R 7

  • 8 fits into 215 exactly 26 times with a remainder of 7.
