Division is splitting into equal parts or groups. It is the result of "fair sharing".
Example: there are 12 chocolates, and 3 friends want to share them, how do they divide the chocolates?
 |  | |
| 12 Chocolates | 12 Chocolates Divided by 3 |
|---|
Answer: 12 divided by 3 is 4: they get 4 each.
Symbols
| ÷ / | We use the ÷ symbol, or sometimes the / symbol to mean divide: 12 ÷ 3 = 4 I will use both symbols here so you get used to it. 12 / 3 = 4 |
