Division with Remainders

Division in math is derived from the term divide; we must have heard when the term is used like divide the money between two brothers or so. What do we mean by that? It simple means that the money given has to be cut or break them into parts, not literally break or cut but to put them in small segments and bifurcate. Let us say I have 4 quarters, and we are just two of us to divide the quarters between us. So notice here there are 4 quarters and we are 2 of us and we need to divide the 4 quarters between us. So, 4 divided by 2. Are we clear on this statement? How 4, as total number of quarters are 4 . And how 2, as total number (number of people) of who will get that quarters are 2. Thus 2 will be at the denominators and 4 will be written on top as numerator. Like 4/2. So as we know 2 times 2 is equals to 4. So, 2 quarters each will be given. This is nothing but 50 cents each. Here the remainder is zero. I like to share this Division Tables with you all through my article.

Let us study more where remainders do come while solving any divison. So what do we mean by remainder? In other words, what is a remainder? Remainder means anything which is left over. In Arithmetic the remainder is the amount left after we have found out the quotient in the divison problem. For example if we divide 27by 5, 5 will go in 27 for 5 times with 2 left over thus here, 2 is the remainder. This was the division with remainders Word problems.

Remainder math terms are expressed as r sometimes. Division word problems with remainders are also explained to understand the division term more precisely. So I have 25 candies and 6 bags to fill them in equally, so how do we do that its simple, we divide 25 by 6 ,which is 6 goes 4 times to get 24 and one is left over. So here I mean 4 candies go in each bag and one is left over which is termed as remainder. So we checked it how easy it is to divide or do division with remainders.

We can also do the same by using long division method but it will take some time to solve whereas when we know by the multiplication table, of 6 that it goes 4 times, the calculation becomes easier and saves lots of time.
