📖What is a Remainder?
A remainder is what's left over when a number doesn't divide evenly. For example, 47 ÷ 5 = 9 R2, because 5 × 9 = 45, and 47 - 45 = 2.
⚠️
The remainder must always be smaller than the divisor. If it's not, you need to increase your quotient!
💡
To check: (quotient × divisor) + remainder = dividend. So for 47 ÷ 5 = 9 R2: (9 × 5) + 2 = 45 + 2 = 47 ✓
