Question

What division sentence means the same asa the following subtraction sentences?

Answer 1

Minus, take away, less

Answer 2

The three subtraction sentences 12-4=8, 8-4=4, and 4-4=0 can be expressed as a single division sentence. The division sentence 12/4 = 3 means that, starting with the number 12,  4 can be subtracted 3 times to get zero. 
Division is repeated subtraction   12 / 4   means how many 4's you can subtract from 12.     12 orange split into units of 4, then how many kids can get 4 oranges       12 -  4 = 8   1st kid        8 -4 = 4    2nd kid        4 - 4  = 0     3rd kid         So 3 kid can get 4 oranges each.         If we multiply  3 * 4 =12          if each 3 kids get each 4 oranges , then what was the total oranges distributed among kids          Now we say that Multiplication is repeated addition.         4 * 3 = 12,  4 + 4 + 4 = 12          Further we can say that Multiplication and division is opposite of each other             Like  2 * 3 = 6       6/3 = 2    6/ 2 =3 , Also division and fractions are the same, and symbols                                                                      can be used interchangeably.
