In mathematics, when we divide one number by another number, we get the quotient and remainder. The dividend is the number that is being divided, and the divisor is the number that divides the dividend. The quotient is the result of the division, and the remainder is the amount left over after performing the division. The formula for finding the quotient and remainder is dividend = divisor x quotient + remainder. The quotient can be a whole number or a decimal, and in perfect division, there is no remainder. However, if the divisor does not divide the dividend completely, then the remainder is the number left over after the division.
