Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (262).
  • 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 262 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 262.

Step 3: Perform the Division

262 ÷ 8=32.75

  • Whole-number quotient: 32 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 262).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

32 x 8 = 256

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

262 - 256 = 6

  • Remainder: 6 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

262 ÷ 8 = 32 R 6

  • 8 fits into 262 exactly 32 times with a remainder of 6.
