What is the answer to division problems?

Answer 1

A division is a dividend divided by the divisor to give the quotient; this is written as:

quotient = dividend ÷ divisor

A division can also be expressed as the divisor divided into a dividend to give the quotient; this is written as:

................. quotient

.............. ------------

divisor | dividend

The quotient can be just the whole part of the result of the division, in which case there may also be a remainder.
