How to work it out

Ask how many times 12 fits into 52. 12 × 4 = 48, and 12 × 5 = 60 is too big, so 12 goes into 52 exactly 4 times with 52 − 48 = 4 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 4 is 4/12 of another 12, and 4 ÷ 12 = about 0.3333. So 52 ÷ 12 = 4 + 0.3333 = about 4.3333.
