Example: 8 divided by 2 = 4 8 is the dividend 2 is the divisor 4 is the quotient, or the solution to the problem. (8 is the )
The Second division of the Christian Bible is the New Testament. The Second division of the Hebrew Bible (תנ״ך) is called the Prophets (נביאים).
8 is the Divisor, 7 is the Dividend.
The minuend is the first number in a subtraction problem and the subtrahend is the second number. So the subtrahend is subtracted from the minuend to give the difference.Minuend - subtrahend = difference
In any subtraction sum, the first digit is called the minuend. The second digit is called the subtrahend, and the answer is the difference. In this instance, the number 4 is the subtrahend.
The first number is called the dividend. The second number is called the divisor. The answer is called the quotient.
the second number
In any division sum, the number to be divided - the first number in a sum such as 6/2 = 3 is called the dividend. The second number is the divisor, and the answer is the quotient.

divisor
The second number in a subtraction problem is called the subtrahend.
In any division sum, for example, 12 / 4 = 3, the divisor is the second number - the one that the number is divided by.
In any division sum, such as 12 / 4 = 3, the first number is the dividend, the second number is the divisor, and the third number is called the quotient.
The second number. Say, if you had 6 divided by 2, then 2 in the divisor and 6 is the dividend.
In a division sum, such as 12 / 3 = 4, the dividend is 12. The second number is called the divisor, and the answer is called the quotient.
The first is the multiplicand the second is the multiplier.
You use the second number of the dividend and divide it by you amount of numbers in your divisor
