What Does It Do?
This function calculates the number
of times a number can be divided by another number.
It ignores any remainder, only
showing the whole number.
Syntax
=QUOTIENT(NumberToBeDivided,Divisor)
Formatting
No special formatting is needed.
Example
The following example was used by a
drinks merchant to calculate the number of crates which could be packed using
bottles in stock.
The merchant can only sell full
crates.
Table
1 calculates the crates by simple division. This however shows
decimal
fractions which are not needed.
Table 2 uses the =QUOTIENT()
function to remove the decimal fraction to
give
the correct result.
