QUICK CONCEPT REVIEW

what is division?

Division is splitting into equal parts or groups.

It is the result of fair sharing. ​

When we share equally we divide.

Symbolically, we write it as follows: 27 ÷ 9 = 3​

For example:​

​WORD PROBLEM IN DIVISION.

Kitty found 25 beautiful pearls on the seashore. She collected​ and brought all of them home. Now she wants to put them in the jewelry boxes. She can put 5 pearls in one jewelry box.

" Replace this with a quote, words full of wisdom that someone important said and can inspire the reader. " 

​there are no more pearls left.

Kitty required 5 jewelry boxes to keep the pearls.

Therefore, w​e can say that 25 pearls put into equal groups of 5 each gives 5 groups or we can say that, 25 pearls divided by 5 pearls in 1 group gives 5 groups.

When we group equally, we divide.

Symbolically, we write it as,

25 ÷ 5 = 5​

Hence, division is splitting into equal parts or groups it is separating or distributing something into parts.​
