Amongst these four operations, the division is one of the major operations we use in our daily activities. It is the process of splitting a large group into equal smaller groups. For example, divide 25 by… Continue reading FAQs on Division

Special Cases : Given below are three special cases of division. Any number is divided by 1(the quotient equals the dividend), gives the answer the same as the dividend. For examples: 10 ÷ 1 = 10 A number cannot be divided by 0 and the result is thus undefined. Example: 60 ÷ 0 = undefined… Continue reading Special Cases

Division and Remainders : Sometimes when dividing there is something left over. It is called the remainder. Example:  There are 7 bones to share with 2 pups. But 7 cannot be divided exactly into 2 groups,so each pup gets 3 bones,and there is 1 left over: We say: “7 divided by 2 equals 3 with a remainder of 1“ And we write: 7 ÷… Continue reading Division and Remainders

Long Division Below is the process written out in full.You will often see other versions, which are generally just a shortened version of the process below. Let’s see how it is done with: the number to be divided into is called the dividend The number which divides the other number is called the divisor And here we… Continue reading Long Division

Divide : In Mathematic the four basic arithmetic operations are addition, subtraction multiplication, and division. Based on the problem requirement, the type of arithmetic operation has chosen. For example, to share 100 chocolates equally among 25 children, we need to divide 100 by 25. Thus, each child will get 4 chocolates. In this article, we… Continue reading Divide
