2. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

   Division is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic. The other operations are addition, subtraction, and multiplication. What is being divided is called the dividend, which is divided by the divisor, and the result is called the quotient. At an elementary level the division of two natural numbers is, among other possible interpretations ...

3. Brams–Taylor procedure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brams–Taylor_procedure

   Brams–Taylor–Zwicker procedure – a moving-knife procedure for 4 partners, which uses a finite number of cuts. Envy-free cake-cutting – older and newer procedures for the same problem. Adjusted winner procedure – procedure designed by Brams and Taylor addressing the similar, but distinct, problem of dividing goods between two agents.

4. Fair cake-cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_cake-cutting

   Fair cake-cutting. If a cake with a selection of toppings is simply cut into equal slices, different people will receive different amounts of its toppings, and some may not regard this as a fair division of the cake. Fair cake-cutting is a kind of fair division problem. The problem involves a heterogeneous resource, such as a cake with ...

5. Division algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_algorithm

   Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.

6. Elementary arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_arithmetic

   Elementary arithmetic is a branch of mathematics involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Due to its low level of abstraction, broad range of application, and position as the foundation of all mathematics, elementary arithmetic is generally the first branch of mathematics taught in schools.

7. Divide and choose - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divide_and_choose

   Divide and choose (also Cut and choose or I cut, you choose) is a procedure for fair division of a continuous resource, such as a cake, between two parties. It involves a heterogeneous good or resource ("the cake") and two partners who have different preferences over parts of the cake. The protocol proceeds as follows: one person ("the cutter ...
