Question

Which which division problem does the diagram below best illustrate? 60 points ​

Answer 1

If the diagram is 8 ovals with 4 squares each, and we know that this is a division,

then we have that an unknown number X is such that:

X/4 = 8 this is because we know that the division is by 4 (the number of squares in each oval) and the solution of the division is the number of ovals.

Then we can solve the equation for X. X/4 = 8

We multiply each side of the equality by 4 X= 4*8 = 32

then the diagram represents the division: 32/4 = 8 or " 32 divided by 4 = 8"
