<p><a href="https://www.prepswift.com/quizzes/quiz/prepswift-quotients-and-remainders" target="_blank">Quotients and Remainders Exercise</a></p><p>To put it simply, the <strong><span style="color:#27ae60;">Quotient</span></strong> is the whole number of times one number goes into another number. For example, $8 \div 4$ has a quotient of $2$ because $4$ "goes into" $8$ two whole times.</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size:20px;"><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Some More Examples</span></span></strong></p>
<ul>
<li>$23 \div 5$
<ul>
<li>Quotient $=4$</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>$\frac{39}{20}$
<ul>
<li>Quotient $=1$</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>$-15 \div 9$
<ul>
<li>Quotient $=-2$</li>
<li>This one is a little weird. The reason why it's $-2$ is because $-2 \times 9 = -18$, and $-18 < -15$. When you multiply the divisor by the quotient, the result has to either be less than or equal the number being divided.</li>
