Division

1 Divisibility Rules

1 There are 24 chocolates. The chocolate is divided equally

among the children. How many chocolates does each child
receive?
Enter various numbers to and find the answer. If the
chocolate is divided among 4 children,
how much does each child receive?
If there are 8 children, how many
chocolates will each child receive? If the
chocolate is divided among 4 children
, 24 : 4 =

for every child

If the chocolate is
divided to 8
children,
24 : 8 =
for every child

If the number of children is doubled, then the number of

chocolates each child receives will be reduced by half.

Let's find the division rules.
