the quotient
If it says x (division symbol) y, then it's the first number. Same with x/y. Divide into x.
The symbol separating the dividend from the divisor in a long division that is drawn as a right parenthesis (or sometimes a straight vertical bar) with an attached vinculum extending to the right seems to have no established name of its own. It can therefore simply be termed the "long division symbol," or sometimes the division bracket.

Quotient
Where you divide a number like 67/23 This is the division symbol
an improper fraction is a fraction that's numerator is larger than its denominator that's what an improper fraction is.Put the numerator in side the division symbol, then put the Divisor outside the symbol. Once you have your answer you put the answer (DON'T ADD THE REMAINDER) as the whole number. Then put the remainder as the numerator and the number outside the symbol, put it as your denominator.
The divisor
It is the middle number in the short (5~1=5) division or outside of the box in long division.
÷ Is the symbol
the quotient
example 32/4=8 32 is the dividend / is the division symbol 4 is the divisor 8 is the answer or the quotient
If it says x (division symbol) y, then it's the first number. Same with x/y. Divide into x.
In long division, the divisor is the number outside the division sign (it's the number that the first number is being divided by). So in this problem, the divisor would be 2.
