if a/b = q remainder r, then
a = b*q + r
Try it with some small numbers:
37/8 = 4R5
4*8+5 = 37
a = b*q + r
Try it with some small numbers:
37/8 = 4R5
4*8+5 = 37

Multiply the divisor by the quotient. Then add the remainder to that product.
50 divided by 12 = 4 with a remainder of 2.
4 * 12 = 48
48 + 2 = 50
50 divided by 12 = 4 with a remainder of 2.
4 * 12 = 48
48 + 2 = 50

multiply the answer to your math problem by your divisor then if you get a close answer then add the number of your remainders on and if you get the same answer as your quotient then its right
