How to work it out

Ask how many times 3 fits into 68. 3 × 22 = 66, and 3 × 23 = 69 is too big, so 3 goes into 68 exactly 22 times with 68 − 66 = 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 68 ÷ 3 = 22 + 0.6667 = about 22.6667.
