How do you decide fairly how much each gets?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">You just divide the donuts equally among your friends! This method of distributing a group of things into equal parts is termed as division. It is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic, which gives a fair result of sharing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-heading\" id=\"0-what-is-division-in-math\">What is Division in Math?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Division is the opposite of multiplication. If 3 groups of 4 make 12 in multiplication, 12 divided into 3 equal groups give 4 in each group in division.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The main goal of dividing is to see how many equal groups are formed or how many are in each group when sharing fairly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">In the above example, to divide 12 donuts into 3 similar groups, you will have to put 4 donuts in each group. So, 12 divided by 3 will give the result 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"recommended-games-container-id\" class=\"recommended-games-container\"><h4 class=\"recommended-games-container-headline\">Recommended

eplus-wrapper\">Each part involved in a division equation has a special name.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Dividend:<\/strong> The dividend is the number that is being divided in the division process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Divisor:<\/strong> The number by which the dividend is being divided by is called the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/division\/divisor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">divisor<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Quotient:<\/strong> The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/division\/quotient\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">quotient<\/a> is a result obtained in the division process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Remainder<\/strong>: Sometimes, we cannot divide things exactly. There may be a leftover number. That leftover number is called the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/division\/remainder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">remainder<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The relationship between these four parts can be expressed as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Dividend = Divisor x Quotient + Remainder<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">This is also called the division formula to check whether the answer is correct or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">For example, let&#8217;s divide 16 by 3. The leftover will be 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Here, dividend = 16, divisor = 3, quotient = 5 and remainder = 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">So, 16 = 3 \u00d7 5 + 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-properties-of-division\">Properties of Division<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full eplus-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"618\" height=\"448\" src=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Division-4.png\" alt=\"Properties of Division\" class=\"wp-image-9548\" title=\"Properties of Division\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Division-4.png 618w, https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Division-4-300x217.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">To understand division better, let\u2019s look at a few general division rules and properties:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>1. If we divide a whole number (except zero) by itself, the quotient or the answer is always 1.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">For example:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">\u00b7 7 \u00f7 7 = 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">\u00b7 25 \u00f7 25 = 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>2. If we divide a whole number by zero, the answer will be undefined.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">6 \u00f7 0 = undefined<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">325 \u00f7 0 = undefined<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>3. Zero divided by any number will give the answer zero.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">0 \u00f7 5 = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">0 \u00f7 100 = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>4. If we divide a whole number (other than zero) by 1, the answer will be the number itself.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">4 \u00f7 1 = 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">11 \u00f7 1 = 11<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>5. If a whole number is divided by another whole number, the quotient may not necessarily be a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/number-sense\/whole-numbers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">whole number<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">15 \u00f7 2 = 7.5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">20 \u00f7 3 = 6.67<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>6. In the case of exact division (with no remainder), the divisor multiplied by the quotient is the dividend. This property holds true only if all three numbers are non-zero whole numbers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">If 30 \u00f7 5 = 6 then 5 \u00d7 6 = 30<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>7. If there are three non-zero whole numbers a, b and c, and b \u00d7 c = a, then,<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>a \u00f7 b = c and a \u00f7 c = b<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">5 \u00d7 10 = 50, then,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">\u00b7 50 \u00f7 5 = 10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">\u00b7 50\u00f7 10 = 5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-long-division\">Long Division<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>In math, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/division\/long-division\" title=\"\">long division<\/a> is the mathematical method for dividing large numbers into smaller groups or parts.
