Answer for screen readers

The result of dividing 207 by 9 is $23$.

Steps to Solve

  1. Set up the division problem

We need to divide 207 by 9, which can be expressed as:

$$ \frac{207}{9} $$

  1. Perform the division

Now, perform the division. First, we see how many times 9 goes into the first digit (2), it doesn't go, so we check the first two digits (20).

9 goes into 20 two times because:

$$ 9 \times 2 = 18 $$

  1. Subtract to find the remainder

Now, subtract 18 from 20:

$$ 20 - 18 = 2 $$

  1. Bring down the next digit

Next, bring down the next digit from 207, which is 7, making it 27.

  1. Divide again

Now, see how many times 9 goes into 27.

9 goes into 27 exactly three times:

$$ 9 \times 3 = 27 $$

  1. Subtract again to find the remainder

Now, subtract 27 from 27:

$$ 27 - 27 = 0 $$

Since there are no more digits to bring down, the division is complete.

The result of dividing 207 by 9 is $23$.

More Information

The division of 207 by 9 results in a whole number. This can be verified by checking the multiplication: $9 \times 23 = 207$.

Tips

  • Misestimating how many times 9 fits into 20: It's important to be careful with the first digits. Always ensure to consider the correct number of digits when doing long division.
  • Forgetting to bring down the next digit: Ensure to bring down the next digit when you cannot divide anymore with the current digits.
