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.

you divide by seeing how many times a number can go into another number..in certain cases you have it where a number goes into another number,but leaves a remainder. eg.

12divided by 5=2.4

whereas 12divided by 6=2

division is repeated subtraction as multiplication is repeated addition.

dividing is a simple task but can be very tricky.

division can be written in diffrent ways/forms.eg.

679

12 divided by 2

e.t.c

twist the multiplication

Also it tells how many divisor are in dividend e.g how many 2,s are in 16 answer is 8.

Also as multiplication is a form of repeated addition, division is a form of repeated subtraction.


Well it's actually backwards multiplicaton. For example 4 divided by 2 equals 2 and that means that 2 times what equals 4. I hope that helps you!!!

you make them into half for example 10 divided by 5 you cut 5 in two times it will =2 because 10 can be divided into 2 grows

Just remember "D.M.S.B". This means Dracula, Must, Suck, Blood and the meaning for THAT is DIVIDE, MULTIPLY, SUBTRACT, (MOVE) BELOW.
For example if I have the sum 14 divided by 2 I would take the 14 and put it in 2 equal groups. Then the amount in one group, in this case 7, would be your answer.

14 objects divided into two groups is 7 objects and 7 objects. Just count the amount in one of the two groups as they are both the same.
