∙ 11y agoI usually start by looking for the smallest factor. In this case, I know that 2 is a factor of 72 because 72 is an even number. Divide 72 by 2 to get 36. Now I know that 36 can be divided by 3 to get 12. Now put the 2 back in to get 24. So 72/3=24.

Lift it carefully, shake most of the soil off and you will find it will almost fall apart. If it doesnt then tease the pieces apart with your hands. When planting make sure you don't plant it deeper than it was.
