We first take 4 plates and Are there sufficient apples left
put 1 apple on each plate. in the basket?

Yes, so we put 1 more Now, no apple is
apple on each plate. left in the basket.

We have shared
8 apples equally.

Here, we see that all the 8 apples have been shared among the 4 children equally.

Each one got 2 apples.

We say that: 8 divided by 4 is equal to 2. We write it as: 8 ÷ 4= 2

The symbol ‘÷’ stands for division. 8 ÷ 4 = 2 is a division fact.
