2. Divider comes first, dividend comes last.

Division and division both mean division, indicating two different ways of reading the division formula. Division means divisor/dividend.

Divided by dividends.

Example:

32÷8=4

This division formula can be described in the following way:

1, 8 divided by 32 equals 4.

32 divided by 8 equals 4.

32 divided by 8 equals 4.

Extended data

Division is one of the four operations. Given the product of two factors and a non-zero factor, the operation of finding another factor is called division.

Division of two numbers is also called the ratio of two numbers. If ab=c(b≠0), the operation of finding another factor A by multiplying the product C and the factor B is division, which is marked as c÷b and pronounced as C divided by B (or B divided by C).

Among them, c is called dividend, b is called divisor, and the result of a operation is called quotient.

The nature of the division operation:

The dividend is enlarged (reduced) by n times, and the quotient is correspondingly enlarged (reduced) by n times under the condition that the divisor is unchanged.

The divisor is expanded (reduced) by n times, while the dividend is unchanged, and the quotient is correspondingly reduced (expanded) by n times.

Dividing by two divisors in succession is equal to dividing by the product of these two divisors. Sometimes simple operations can be performed according to the nature of the division. For example, 300÷25÷4=300÷(25×4) divided by a number is equal to the reciprocal of this number.
