Division can be thought of as the opposite of multiplication. Let's say you want to divide 8 by 2. Another way to think of this example is what can be multiplied by 2 to equal 8? 4 does. There are many different methods to come up with a solution. I honestly cannot explain division with one universal method. Start with thinking about what is division. It took me awhile to figure it out, unfortunately I don't think I can help much that's what I can explain. Anybody with more knowledge than my 10th grade math skills please help? This is important.
When we divide any number, divisor must be smaller than the number of dividend. Subtract the product from the number of dividend every time and then take the next number until all number finished. Quotient is always written above the line and product below the number of dividend.
