Step By Step Calculation
Step 1: Understand Division Terms
- Dividend: The number being divided (287).
- 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 287 ÷ 9 to determine how many times 9 fits fully into 287.
Step 3: Perform the Division
287 ÷ 9=31.888888888889
- Whole-number quotient: 31 (the number of times 9 fits completely into 287).
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:
287 - 279 = 8
- Remainder: 8 (the amount left over).
Final Answer
