Answer: Quotient=20 and remainder=15.


Explanation:

Here dividend=495 and divisor=24

Step 1) Write easy multiples of 24 such as

24×2=48

24×5=120

24×10=240 and so on...

Step 2) Find the easier multiple of 24 to subtract from 495 .

Let 240 is the easiest one then 495-240=255 and note 10 as first partial quotient.

Step 3) Again subtracting 240 (as easier one) from 255 and note 10 as second partial quotient,we get 255-240=15 which is our remainder (as it is less than the divisor).

Step 4) add both the partial quotients=10+10=20→ Quotient
