Final answer:
In Robert's Rules of Order, three subsidiary motions to which a division of a question yields are Lay on the Table, Previous Question, and Postpone Indefinitely.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student asked about subsidiary motions in a parliamentary procedure or a formal meeting, such as a debate or public meeting, where the question is about motions that a division of a question would yield to. Subsidiary motions are those that are applied to other motions for the purpose of modifying it, delaying action on it, or to provide for a method of decision-making. In Robert's Rules of Order, these motions are recognized as having a specific order of precedence. Three subsidiary motions that a division of a question yields to include:
- Lay on the Table
- Previous Question (or Closure)
- Postpone Indefinitely
These motions have higher precedence than a division of the question and therefore must be addressed before the question can be divided and voted upon separately.
