2. Manipulative (mathematics education) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manipulative_(mathematics...

   Improvised teacher-made manipulatives used in teaching place value include beans and bean sticks, or single popsicle sticks and bundles of ten popsicle sticks. Virtual manipulatives for mathematics are computer models of these objects. Notable collections of virtual manipulatives include The National Library of Virtual Manipulatives and the ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_manipulatives_for...

   Virtual math manipulatives are sometimes included in the general academic curriculum as assistive technology for students with physical or mental disabilities. [4] Students with disabilities are often able to still participate in activities using virtual manipulatives even if they are unable to engage in physical activity. [5] [6]

   17 indivisible camels. The 17-animal inheritance puzzle is a mathematical puzzle involving unequal but fair allocation of indivisible goods, usually stated in terms of inheritance of a number of large animals (17 camels, 17 horses, 17 elephants, etc.) which must be divided in some stated proportion among a number of beneficiaries.

5. Fraction - Wikipedia

   The picture to the right illustrates ⁠ 3 / 4 ⁠ of a cake. Fractions can be used to represent ratios and division. [1] Thus the fraction ⁠ 3 / 4 ⁠ can be used to represent the ratio 3:4 (the ratio of the part to the whole), and the division 3 ÷ 4 (three divided by four).

6. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   In abstract algebra, given a magma with binary operation ∗ (which could nominally be termed multiplication), left division of b by a (written a \ b) is typically defined as the solution x to the equation a ∗ x = b, if this exists and is unique. Similarly, right division of b by a (written b / a) is the solution y to the equation y ∗ a = b ...

7. Unit fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_fraction

   In modular arithmetic, unit fractions can be converted into equivalent whole numbers, allowing modular division to be transformed into multiplication. Every rational number can be represented as a sum of distinct unit fractions; these representations are called Egyptian fractions based on their use in ancient Egyptian mathematics. Many infinite ...
