How to work it out

Ask how many times 12 fits into 50. 12 × 4 = 48, and 12 × 5 = 60 is too big, so 12 goes into 50 exactly 4 times with 50 − 48 = 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 50 ÷ 12 = 4 + 0.1667 = about 4.1667.
