Can someone give me a real life example of division in practice?? How does that work?
In: Mathematics
If you have eight oranges and three people and were to divide them evenly amongst those people, how many whole oranges would each person get? Each person would get two oranges and there would be two oranges off to the side.
Now what if you wanted to use up all the oranges and have none left over? Then what you could do is take those two spare oranges and slice them each into thirds. One third of each orange to each person. So now each person has two and two-thirds oranges.
