Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (144).
  • 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 144 ÷ 9 to determine how many times 9 fits fully into 144.

Step 3: Perform the Division

144 ÷ 9=16

  • Whole-number quotient: 16 (the number of times 9 fits completely into 144).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

16 x 9 = 144

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

144 - 144 = 0

  • Remainder: 0 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

144 ÷ 9 = 16 R 0

  • 9 fits into 144 exactly 16 times with a remainder of 0.
