How to work it out

Ask how many times 12 fits into 26. 12 × 2 = 24, and 12 × 3 = 36 is too big, so 12 goes into 26 exactly 2 times with 26 − 24 = 2 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 2 is 2/12 of another 12, and 2 ÷ 12 = about 0.1667. So 26 ÷ 12 = 2 + 0.1667 = about 2.1667.
