Key facts behind this division meaning test

Key facts

Division finds the size of each group or the number of groups.
In 24 ÷ 4 = 6, the 24 is the dividend, the 4 is the divisor, and the 6 is the quotient.
Dividing 42 by 6 asks: 6 times what number makes 42?
An unknown can be in any spot, as in 8 × ? = 48, ? ÷ 3 = 5, or 24 ÷ ? = 8.
Check any division answer by multiplying the quotient by the divisor.
