How to work it out

Ask how many times 12 fits into 81. 12 × 6 = 72, and 12 × 7 = 84 is too big, so 12 goes into 81 exactly 6 times with 81 − 72 = 9 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 9 is 9/12 of another 12, and 9 ÷ 12 = 0.75. So 81 ÷ 12 = 6 + 0.75 = 6.75.

Multiply back: 6 × 12 + 9 = 72 + 9 = 81. ✓
