Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (140).
- Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (9).
- Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
- Remainder: The amount left over after division.
Step 2: Set Up the Division
Calculate 140 ÷ 9 to determine how many times 9 fits fully into 140.
Step 3: Perform the Division
140 ÷ 9=15.555555555556
- Whole-number quotient: 15 (the number of times 9 fits completely into 140).
Step 4: Verify the Quotient
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:
15 x 9 = 135
Step 5: Calculate the Remainder
Subtract this product from the original dividend:
140 - 135 = 5
- Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
140 ÷ 9 = 15 R 5
- 9 fits into 140 exactly 15 times with a remainder of 5.
