That's how division is formally defined in advanced math.
Multiply the reciprocal of the divisor by the dividend.
You divide the dividend by the divisor (or the divisor 'into' the dividend) to get the quotient.
In a division problem, the dividend is divided by the divisor.
the divisor is the number you divide with the dividend
the parts of division problem are : dividend , divisor , quotient and remainder . where : dividend = quotient * divisor + remainder
Dividend divided by divisor equals quotient.
In division the dividend is divided by the divisor to produce a quotient.
Divisor
Multiply the quotient by the divisor to result in the dividend.If dividend/divisor=quotient, then dividend=quotient x divisor
The divisor is divided into the dividend. When drawing the division house, the divisor is on the outside. The dividend is on the inside of the house, and the quotient is the answer (on top).
dividend ÷ divisor = quotient
In a division problem, the dividend is the part of the problem to the left of the "
