Enter 2 numbers for Basic Math Operations:
Use long division with remainders:
54 ÷ 15:
| | 0 |
1 | 5 | 5 | 4 |
| | 0 | | | | <---- 0 x 15 = 0 |
| | 5 | | | | <---- 5 - 0 = 5 |
| | 0 | 3 |
1 | 5 | 5 | 4 |
| | 0 | | | | |
| | 5 | 4 | | | | <---- Bring down the 4 from the numerator |
| | 4 | 5 | | | | <---- 3 x 15 = 45 |
| | | 9 | | | | <---- 54 - 45 = 9 |
We still have 9 leftover, and no more numbers to bring down, so we have our remainder term:
Expressing our remainder as a fraction: Remainder/Denominator, we get:
Our fraction portion is not reduced down completely. Using our
GCF calculator, we see the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 9 and 15 is
3.
Dividing the numerator and denominator by the GCF, we get:
Numerator: = 3
Denominator: = 5
Answer in Fractional Remainder Form = 3 & 3/5
54 ÷ 15 = 3 r 9 or 3 & 3/5
Final Answer
Answer = 54 ÷ 15 = 3 r 9 or 3 & 3/5
