Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (284).
  • 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 284 ÷ 9 to determine how many times 9 fits fully into 284.

Step 3: Perform the Division

284 ÷ 9=31.555555555556

  • Whole-number quotient: 31 (the number of times 9 fits completely into 284).

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:

284 - 279 = 5

  • Remainder: 5 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

284 ÷ 9 = 31 R 5

  • 9 fits into 284 exactly 31 times with a remainder of 5.
