Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (277).
  • 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 277 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 277.

Step 3: Perform the Division

277 ÷ 8=34.625

  • Whole-number quotient: 34 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 277).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

34 x 8 = 272

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

277 - 272 = 5

  • Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

277 ÷ 8 = 34 R 5

  • 8 fits into 277 exactly 34 times with a remainder of 5.
