Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (87).
- 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 87 ÷ 8 to determine how many times 8 fits fully into 87.

87 ÷ 8=10.875
- Whole-number quotient: 10 (the number of times 8 fits completely into 87).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
10 x 8 = 80
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
87 - 80 = 7
- Remainder: 7 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
87 ÷ 8 = 10 R 7
- 8 fits into 87 exactly 10 times with a remainder of 7.
