When the divisor is abstract and the dividend concrete, the quotient has the same name as the dividend. Thus: $217 $3, or of $21 = $3.

When we consider that $7 is contained 3 times in $21, the problem differs from the separation of $21 into 7 equal parts. The latter kind of division is called partition.

4. Divide the following first by 10; then by 100; then by 1000: 5000; 35000; 42000; 63,000; 78,000. How does the removal of one naught from the right of a number affect its value? the removal of two naughts? three naughts? etc.

5. Find of 120; 160; 200; 400; 480; 960.

27. Divide the number 4,294,967,296 by 4; divide the quotient by 4, and continue to write successive quotients by 4 as divisor for two minutes without writing divisors. Change the dividend and the divisor until rapidity and accuracy have been attained.

FACTORING

1. What are the factors of 4? of 6? of 8?

The factors of a number are the integers that, multiplied together, will produce that number. They are exact divisors of the number since they will divide it an integral number of times.

=

Thus the factors of 4 are 2 and 2, since 2 × 2 4; the factors of 6 are 2 and 3, since 2 × 3 6; the factors of 8 are 4 and 2, since 4 × 2 2, 2, and 2, since 2 × 2 × 2 = 8..

2. What two factors will produce 9? 15? 25? 32?

= 8, or

3. If 3 is one of the factors of 36, what is the other factor? if 4 is one of the factors?

4. Name two factors that will produce 16; 24; 28; 38; 46; 52.

5. What three factors will produce 8? 12? 20? 42?

6. What number will divide 13, giving a whole number as quotient? Observe that 13 has no factors except itself and 1.

A prime number is an integer that has no other factors except itself and 1. All other integers are called composite

numbers.

Thus, 5 = 5 × 1; 7 = 7 x 1. 5 and 7 are prime numbers. 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, etc., are composite numbers.

7. What numbers between 0 and 30 are prime numbers? between 30 and 60?

Prime factors are factors that are prime numbers.

Thus, 3 and 7 are the prime factors of 21.
