How to Do Division
By Matt C

If you are bad at math, then read this. First, to do division you should get a teacher, a pencil and a piece of paper. You almost have to know multiplication or times tables. Then if you get division problems you will notice that the first number is always bigger then the second one. In division it's how many of the second number is in the first number like 9 ¸ 3=3 because there are 3 threes in 9.If you get stuck on a problem you should draw a picture. Some problems you can’t do without using points because the second number isn't divisible by the first number. For example, you can't do 13 ¸ 6 but you can do 13 ¸ 6.5. I suggest you start out with easy problems like 5 ¸ 1 then use flash cards then do hard problems like 1,000 ¸ 1000,000=1000.The sign for division is ¸ . You probably won't learn it fast. You don't have to know addition but you should. If you get stuck on a problem, you should use a piece of paper and a pencil. And that’s how you do division.
