How is a number divided by six?

Answer 1

when a number is divided by another number, you are seeing how many times the second number can go in to the first

as an example if the problem reads

60 divided by 6

you are seeing how many times 6 will go into 60

the answer would then be 10

if you have a problem that reads

10 divided by 100

you will get a decimal

the answer is .1 which is also read 10%
