don,t ask those questions no one likes math ok
the divisor is the place where i placed a 4 2 4\ 8
It is called a multiple of the divisor.
dividend and divisor
The second number. Say, if you had 6 divided by 2, then 2 in the divisor and 6 is the dividend.
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.
if you meant 6 divided by 2 equals three the divisor would be 6
Quotient = Dividend / Divisor Quotient is the answer to the equation (3 = 6 / 2, the quotient is 3). Dividend is what you are dividing (3 = 6 / 2, the dividend is 6). Divior is what you are dividing by (3 = 6 / 2, the divisor is 2). If division equation is changed to 3 = 7 / 2, we have a remainder of 1 left from the dividend.
The two numbers that give you the quotient in a division operation are the dividend and the divisor. The dividend is the number being divided, while the divisor is the number by which the dividend is being divided. The result of the division operation is the quotient. For example, in the division problem 10 ÷ 2 = 5, 10 is the dividend, 2 is the divisor, and 5 is the quotient.
A divisor is the number in a division problem, that you are dividing by to get your answer.
the divisor is the number you divide with the dividend
In division, a divisor is the number that is dividing the dividend. An easy way to remember this is that that divisor sounds like divider. The divisor is, if you will, the numbe rof pieces that you are breaking the other number into.
A number is termed as a proper divisor of another number when after division the reminder is '0' i.e., the number is a factor of the divisor. Ex: 10 is the number and 2 is the proper divisor because 10/2 = 5 and reminder = 0.
