How to work it out

Ask how many times 3 fits into 61. 3 × 20 = 60, and 3 × 21 = 63 is too big, so 3 goes into 61 exactly 20 times with 61 − 60 = 1 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 1 is 1/3 of another 3, and 1 ÷ 3 = about 0.3333. So 61 ÷ 3 = 20 + 0.3333 = about 20.3333.
