Definición

  • Division is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic. The other operations are addition, subtraction, and multiplication. What is being divided is called the dividend, which is divided by the divisor, and the result is called the quotient.
    At an elementary level the division of two natural numbers is, among other possible interpretations, the process of calculating the number of times one number is contained within another.  For example, if 20 apples are divided evenly between 4 people, everyone receives 5 apples. However, this number of times or the number contained (divisor) need not be integers.
