Understand the Problem
The question is asking for the result of the division operation 67 divided by 16, which involves finding out how many times 16 fits into 67.
Answer
The answer is \( 4 \text{ R } 3 \) or \( 4.1875 \).
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is: ( 4 \text{ R } 3 ) or ( 4.1875 ).
Steps to Solve
- Identify the operation
We need to perform the division operation: ( \frac{67}{16} ).
- Calculate the division
To find out how many times 16 fits into 67, we perform the division: $$ 67 \div 16 = 4.1875 $$
- Interpret the result
The integer part of the division tells us that 16 fits into 67 a total of 4 times. To find the remainder, we can multiply the integer part by 16 and subtract from 67: $$ 67 - (4 \times 16) = 67 - 64 = 3 $$
- Final result
The division gives us a quotient of 4 with a remainder of 3. Thus, we can express the division as: $$ 67 \div 16 = 4 \text{ R } 3 $$
The final answer is: ( 4 \text{ R } 3 ) or ( 4.1875 ).
More Information
In division problems, the quotient tells us how many times the divisor can fit into the dividend while the remainder represents what is left over. Here, 16 fits into 67 four times before we reach a remainder.
Tips
- Rounding too early: Sometimes, one might round the quotient before writing the final answer. It's important to keep the decimal until the end to verify the remainder.
- Confusing remainder with decimal part: Make sure to differentiate between the integer quotient and the decimal remainder to avoid any errors in representation.
