Lesson 1

• Division means grouping objects equally.

• The division sentence tells us how many equal groups of objects there are.

• The dividend is the total number of objects.

• The divisor is the number of objects in each group.

• • The quotient is the number of equal groups. It is the answer in division.

Lesson 2

• Division is also repeated subtraction.

• Repeated subtraction means subtracting the same number as many times as needed until a difference of 0 is reached.

• • It also involves finding out how many equal groups there will be if we keep o subtracting the same number.
