How do you divide 16 by 5 show work?

Answer 1

To divide 16 by 5, you can set it up as a division problem: ( 16 \div 5 ). When you perform the division, 5 goes into 16 three times (since ( 5 \times 3 = 15 )). This leaves a remainder of 1, so you can express the result as ( 3 ) with a remainder of ( 1 ), or as a decimal ( 3.2 ) (since ( 1 \div 5 = 0.2 )). Thus, ( 16 \div 5 = 3.2 ).
