Question

1. write each word and what it means: dividend → divisor → quotient →

Explanation:

• Dividend: The number that is being divided. For example, in the division problem \(10\div2 = 5\), \(10\) is the dividend. It is the total amount or quantity that is being split into equal parts.
• Divisor: The number by which the dividend is divided. In \(10\div2 = 5\), \(2\) is the divisor. It represents the number of equal parts into which the dividend is being divided.
• Quotient: The result of the division operation. In \(10\div2 = 5\), \(5\) is the quotient. It shows how many times the divisor fits into the dividend.

Answer:

• Dividend: The number being divided.
• Divisor: The number by which the dividend is divided.
• Quotient: The result of the division.
