Like multiplication is a quick way to do multiple additions of the same number, subtraction is a quick way to do multiple subtractions of the same number - subtraction gives how many times the divisor can be subtracted from the dividend until zero is reached (and not passed). If a number is reached (when subtracting) which is less than the divisor but greater than zero, then a fraction of the divisor needs to be subtracted - this fraction is this number (as the numerator) over the divisor (as the denominator).
The amount subtracted each time does not have to be the divisor, but can be any multiple of the divisor (sticking to multiples of powers of 10 (10, 100, 1000 etc) as the multiple is best) speeds up the multiple subtractions; if using this method, add up the multiples - this is known as "Chunking" (as 'chunks' of the divisor are removed from the dividend at each subtraction).
Example: 4966 ÷ 13
Subtracting 13 each time gives:
1: 4966 - 13 = 4953
2: 4966 - 13 = 4940
3: 4940 - 13 = 4927
...
380: 39 - 13 = 26
381: 26 - 13 = 13
382: 13 - 13 = 0
→ 4966 ÷ 13 = 382
Using chunking with powers of 10 as the multiples:
4966 - 13 × 100 = 4966 - 1300 = 3666
3666 - 13 × 100 = 3666 - 1300 = 2366
2366 - 13 × 100 = 2366 - 1300 = 1066
1066 - 13 × 10 = 1066 - 130 = 936
936 - 13 × 10 = 936 - 130 = 806
...[8 times the subtraction of 13 × 10 can be done]
156 - 13 × 10 = 156 - 130 = 26
26 - 13 × 1 = 26 - 13 = 13
13 - 13 × 1 = 13 - 13 = 0
→ 4966 ÷ 13 = 100 + 100 + 100 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 1 + 1 = 382
When chunking with powers of 10 as the multiples, but using a multiple (possibly greater than 1) of the powers of 10, leading to:
4966 - 13 × (100 × 3) = 4966 - 13 × 300 = 4966 - 3900 = 1066
1066 - 13 × (10 × 8) = 1066 - 13 × 80 = 4966 - 1040 = 26
26 - 13 × (1 × 2) = 26 - 13 × 2 = 26 - 26 = 0
→ 4966 ÷ 13 = 300 + 80 + 2
(If you look carefully, you may spot that this multiple chunking is how long division is done.)
Use BIDMAS meaning order of operations are brackets, indices, division, multiplication, addition and subtraction
a division metheod use to solve a division problem
No you can not use subtraction or division in the associative property.
Not sure about the first part of the question, but when doing long division, the partial answer is multiplied by the divisor to get a product, which then is subtracted from the dividend, to see how much is left over.
you use PEMDAS which is parentheses exponents multiplication and division from left to right addition and subtraction from left to right

We use mechanical calculators so we can find out answers to division, multiplication, adding, and subtraction problem .

To find the sum of integers, you use addition.To find the difference, you use subtraction.
lets say that you're doing a division problem that looks just like a multiplication problem. lets say its 10 divided by 5 so 2x5 equals 10 so the missing number in the problem is 2 MORE TO COME
Division by any non-zero number is the same as multiplication by its reciprocal.
