Example Question #152 : Common Core Math: Grade 3
When we are dividing, we are splitting things up into groups. For this problem, we can think of this as we have items and we want to split them up equally into groups. We are solving for the number of items in each group.
We can draw circles and start putting the items, in this case triangles, into each circle equally.
Our answer is the number of items in group. In this case, there are triangles in each of the groups so our answer is .
