Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (282).
  • 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 282 ÷ 9 to determine how many times 9 fits fully into 282.

Step 3: Perform the Division

282 ÷ 9=31.333333333333

  • Whole-number quotient: 31 (the number of times 9 fits completely into 282).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

31 x 9 = 279

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

282 - 279 = 3

  • Remainder: 3 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

282 ÷ 9 = 31 R 3

  • 9 fits into 282 exactly 31 times with a remainder of 3.
