no, remainder is left after division and decimal is any number with a decimal (point) in between
No. Remainders are the 'left overs' of an imperfect division of a number. Such as ten divided by three would be three, remainder one
Decimals are the 'fractional' part of a number after the decimal point which would be less than a whole number.
A remainder left after division is actually a common fraction. The numerator is the remainder and the denominator is the divisor. Any common fraction can be converted into a decimal fraction by dividing the numerator by the denominator, so remainders can be decimals added to the quotient. As examples, dividing 49 by 14 gives a quotient of 3 and a remainder of 7, which can also be written as 3 7/14 and simplified to 3 1/2 or converted to 3.5. Similarly, 114 divided by 10 gives a quotient of 11 and a remainder of 4, which can also be written 11 4/10 and simplified to 11 2/5 or converted to 11.4

No, remainders and decimals are not the same. A remainder is the integer left over after division, while a decimal is a way to represent a fraction or part of a whole number. In division, remainders are whole numbers, while decimals can include fractions. Remainders are typically expressed as whole numbers, while decimals can be infinitely long and include repeating patterns.
By the time you advance to the point of dividing decimals, you don't use remainders any more.
What are fractions or decimals that name the same amount
For numbers 0-23 , the remainder will range from 23-0 . After 23 , the same range of remainders will repeat. Hence , when 23 is the divisor , there are 24 possible remainders , 0-23.

If the dividend is a multiple of 8 then there will be no remainders in the quotient otherwise the possible remainders are limitless
