For me personally, I learned my multiplication tables before I learned division.
So, the way I would solve 36 / 6 would be:
What number, multiplied by 6, equals 36.
Well, 6 x 6 = 36
So, 36 / 6 must equal 6.
That's how I would do it.

Like a starving beast, the fire consumed the forest.
There is use of figurative language here indicated by the phrase starving beast. Fire is compared to a starving beast by use of simile.
