Explanation:
In dividing a number, we must first identify the dividend and the divisor. To easily understand the concepts, we equate in like a fraction, whereas the numerator is the dividend, and it is divided by the denominator, which is the divisor. If the answer or quotient is a whole number, this means that both numbers are factors of one another, if not, then the quotient will have a remainder or decimal.
For cases, whereas we are asked to divide fractions, we simply take the reciprocal of the denominator and multiply it with the denominator.
