How does division affect numbers? give an example and explain the your example and answer

Division affects numbers by splitting them up into neat little groups.

For example, we can say we have 68 marbles and want to split them into 4 piles. For this, we can make the division problem 68 / 4 = ?

In this example, we are saying that we are splitting 68 marbles into 4 even groups. If we are doing it evenly, how many marbles are in each pile?

68 / 4 = 17

There are 17 marbles in each of the 4 piles. We can check our work by adding:

17 + 17 + 17 + 17 = 68

And the math checks out.
