Democritus' response was...
There is a limit, if it is to remain in its original form.

answ2. Any number may be divided into half as many times as you wish.A1. It depend on what it is, in theory you can, but perhaps not.

He was, however, put down by Aristotle. Aristotle had a larger and stronger following, so people dismissed Democritus as a lunatic.
An isosceles triangle can be divided into 4 smaller, identical isosceles triangles. Each of these can then be divided into 4, and each of them ... So, the answer to the question is infinitely many.

It might be easier to visualize with smaller numbers. 30 divided by 5 = 6 30 divided by 6 = 5 The larger the divisor, the smaller the quotient.
