What are the dividend and divisor?

The dividend is the number being divided. The divisor is the number it is divided by.

After finding the largest whole-number quotient, the remainder is the amount left over and is smaller than the absolute divisor.

Does the calculator show work?

Yes. The steps table shows each current dividend, quotient digit, subtraction, and resulting remainder.

Can the divisor be zero?

No. Division by zero is undefined, so the calculator rejects a zero divisor.

Division Result100 ÷ 7 = 14 R2

Divide two whole numbers and see the quotient, remainder, reduced mixed fraction, decimal result, and the repeated divide-multiply-subtract steps.

Formula

Integer division satisfies dividend = divisor × quotient + remainder. Each long-division step chooses a quotient digit, multiplies it by the divisor, subtracts, and brings down the next digit.

Examples

100 divided by 7

The quotient is 14 with remainder 2. The same result is 14 2/7 or approximately 14.285714285714.
