The quotient is the answer to a division problem. The remainder is what is left over after you've divided the whole numbers.
68 divided by 5 = 13 with a remainder of 3.
ok i have another question these problees are alittle different... it's division: but it says find the quotints and remainders?
then it has a problem of:
5 divided by 68
or 68 divided by 5???
