How to work it out

Ask how many times 12 fits into 32. 12 × 2 = 24, and 12 × 3 = 36 is too big, so 12 goes into 32 exactly 2 times with 32 − 24 = 8 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 8 is 8/12 of another 12, and 8 ÷ 12 = about 0.6667. So 32 ÷ 12 = 2 + 0.6667 = about 2.6667.
