How to work it out

Ask how many times 2 fits into 83. 2 × 41 = 82, and 2 × 42 = 84 is too big, so 2 goes into 83 exactly 41 times with 83 − 82 = 1 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 1 is 1/2 of another 2, and 1 ÷ 2 = 0.5. So 83 ÷ 2 = 41 + 0.5 = 41.5.

Multiply back: 41 × 2 + 1 = 82 + 1 = 83. ✓
