You can't have a remainder of 6 when you divide by 2! JHC!
A quotient is the answer when you divide 2 numbers. For example if you divide 72 by 3, you get 24 as a quotient.
In the calculation below, the Divisor (3) cannot evenly divide into the dividend (7), then there will be a Quotient (2) and a Remainder (1) 7 ÷ 3 = 2, +1 The remainder is the amount left over.
In a division such as 7 divided by 3 = 2 + 1 The number you are dividing - 7 - is the dividend The number you are dividing by - 3 - is the divisor The number you get - 2 - is the quotient The number left over - 1 - is the remainder.
37 can be expressed as 37 = 5 x 7 + 2, where 5 is the divisor, 7 is the quotient, and 2 is the remainder. Reminder is a positive integer. If you divide 37 by 5 and you get a decimal number 7.4, .4 is not a remainder. Multiply 5 by the quotient 7, and subtract the product 35 from the dividend 37 to get the remainder 2.
