How to work it out

Ask how many times 12 fits into 77. 12 × 6 = 72, and 12 × 7 = 84 is too big, so 12 goes into 77 exactly 6 times with 77 − 72 = 5 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 5 is 5/12 of another 12, and 5 ÷ 12 = about 0.4167. So 77 ÷ 12 = 6 + 0.4167 = about 6.4167.

Multiply back: 6 × 12 + 5 = 72 + 5 = 77. ✓
