SOLUTION:

When we want to divide a number by another, we want to share the number into parts.

Example:

We want to divide 10 by 2, this means, we share 10 into 2 parts.

We can see that if we divide 10 pencils into groups of 2, we have 5 groups; therefore;


10/2=5

Let me divide 12 by 4;

If we have 12 pencils, we share into groups of 4, we find out that we have 3 groups;

Thus;


12/4=3
