Asked by Sandy

in division why should the remainder not be greater than the divisor
Answered by Dan
the number can be divided by a greater sum
then.
Answered by Dr. Jane
If it is greater, that means the number could have gone into the dividend one more time.

Example 12 divided by 5

If you said 1 with a remainder of 7 that is wrong. We know we are wrong because 7 is bigger than 5.

It is 2 with a remainder of 2

If it were greater, then the dividend should be larger.
