Arrow-Puffin-4_Semester-1 Maths 151DIVISIONDivision is one of the four mathematical operations. It is the opposite of multiplication. It is splitting into equal parts or groups.The symbol for division is . In a division, the number which is divided is called the dividend, the number which divides is called the divisor and the answer you get after division is called the quotient.Dividend Divisor = QuotientExample : Divide 135 by 9. 1 59 13 5 9 4 5 4 5 0 135 is the dividend. 9 is the divisor. 15 is the quotient.PROPERTIES OF DIVISIONDivision of any number by 1When we divide a number by 1 (other than 0), we get the number itself.Examples : 235 %u00f7 1 = 235 1015 %u00f7 1 = 1015 28,176 %u00f7 1 = 28,176Division of 0 by any numberWhen we divide 0 by any number, we get 0.Examples : 0 %u00f7 138 = 0 0 %u00f7 1762 = 0 0 %u00f7 1,37,016 = 0Division of a number by itselfWhen a number (other than 0) is divided by itself we always get 1 as the quotient.Examples : 351 %u00f7 351 = 1 2785 %u00f7 2785 = 1 1,01,735 %u00f7 1,01,735 = 1Division and multiplication are related.Every multiplication fact has two division facts.Examples :7 x 5 = 35 Multiplication fact 35 %u00f7 5 = 7 Division fact 35 %u00f7 7 = 5 Division factDivision of a number by 0 is not possible.Let's Understand Conceptual UnderstandingLet's Understand Conceptual Understanding
