Q2: What is the result of the division called?
(a) Dividend
(b) Divisor
(c) Quotient
(d) Remainder
Ans: (c) Quotient

(b) The result is always 1.
(c) The result is zero.
(d)The result is the dividend.
Ans: (b) The result is always 1
When a number is divided by itself (except zero), the result is always 1. For instance, 8÷8 = 1.
Q4: What happens when you divide zero by a non-zero number?
(a) The result is 1.
(b) The result is 0.
(c) The result is undefined.

Q4: A factory made 3,276 chocolates in 12 days. The manager says the factory made _________chocolates per day.
Ans: 27
Q5: If you divide zero by a number, the result is __________.
Ans: "0"True or False

Division by zero is not defined because no number can be divided by zero in mathematics. It leads to an undefined result. Hence, the statement is False.
Q2: The remainder can be equal to the divisor.
Ans: "False"
The remainder in a division operation is always less than the divisor. For example, in 10÷3, the remainder is 1, which is less than 3. Hence, the statement is False.
