Why must the remainder be less than the divisor?
The remainder is less than the divisor because if the remainder was greater than the divisor, you have the wrong quotient. In other words, you should increase your quotient until your remainder is less than your divisor!
Why should the remainder be less than the divisor?
Because if the remainder is greater, then you could "fit" another divisor value into it. if they are equal, then you can divide it easily. Thus, the remainder is always lower than the divisor.

What does proper divisor mean?
A number is termed as a proper divisor of another number when after division the reminder is '0' i.e., the number is a factor of the divisor. Ex: 10 is the number and 2 is the proper divisor because 10/2 = 5 and reminder = 0.
Which number could be a reminder for a problem with a divisor of 8?
Any non-negative number less than 8. If the number being divided is not a whole number, the remainder will not be a whole number either.
Is the divisor always less than the remainder?
because the divisor wont work when you multiply it??
Can a divisor be less than a remainder?
No it shouldn't because the divisor should always be bigger.
What is the largest remainder possible if the divisor is 63?
