Summary
Tim, Moby, and friends are done with their heist and ready to divvy up the loot! Division is the splitting of large numbers into equal groups of smaller numbers. You can think of it like repeated subtraction. The number being divided is called the dividend, the number you're dividing by is the divisor, and the answer is the quotient. You can check your answer by multiplying the quotient by the divisor—if your answer is the dividend, you've done it right. Press "play" to learn more about division and to find out if Tim and Moby get away with their big grift!
