Best Answer

You use multiplication. Example: Problem is- 11 divided by 2. You would take the 2 and times it by 5, (2x5=10) with a remainder of 1 to equal 11. The answer is 5 with a remainder of 1. Mathematics is a great subject, there are so many ways of calculating and deriving answers and generate the same answer. Here's another way of doing it, 11 divided by 2 11 is not divisible by 2 but 10 is , there are 5 2's in 10 and that remains 1 as your remainder therefore, 11 / 2 = 5 remainder 1 tip: if you are dividing a number , look for the nearest multiple of the number and then the remaining is your remainder. You can have an answer as well with a decimal and that would be another lesson. hope this helps

What is the greatest remainder you can have when you divide by 2?

the biggest remainder you can have when dividing by 2 is 1. Reason is ......if you divide an even number by 2 you will always get a round answer. However if you divide an odd number by 2 you will always get a full number with 1 reamining...i.e divide 3 by 2.........2 remainder 1......................divide 19 by 2 this will give you 9 remainder 1.
