ANSWER

The answer is 97 and the remainder is 1

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find 6,114 divided by 63.

To do this, we have:


(6114)/(63)

We start by dividing by common factors of the two numbers.

3 is a common factor, so we have:


(6114)/(63)=\text{ }(2038)/(21)

Now, there are no more common factors, so we divide 2038 by 21 and find the remainder:


(2038)/(21)=\text{ 97 remainder 1}

Therefore, the answer is 97 and the remainder is 1.
