Answer 1

A. Yes, the number 8 is divisible by 4. You can split it into two, 4 and 4.
B. Yes, the number 99 is divisible by 3, You can split it into three equal parts.
33,33, and 33.
C. Yes because it works like that for all of the numbers.
Hope this helps.

Answer 2

Explanation:

A. Yes, Miguel is correct because all even numbers are the multiple of 2 and when we divide any even number resultant will be a whole number which represents the number of equal parts.

Example: 8 ÷ 2 = 4

B. Yes, Because all numbers which are multiple of 3, when divided by 3 resultant will be a whole number which represents the equal number of parts.

Example : 6 ÷ 3 = 2

C. Yes, Lupe is correct. When any number multiple of n is divided by n we get a whole number which represents the number of parts divided equally.

Example : 2n ÷ n = 2
