How to work it out

Ask how many times 3 fits into 65. 3 × 21 = 63, and 3 × 22 = 66 is too big, so 3 goes into 65 exactly 21 times with 65 − 63 = 2 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 2 is 2/3 of another 3, and 2 ÷ 3 = about 0.6667. So 65 ÷ 3 = 21 + 0.6667 = about 21.6667.
