Explain how to divide an amount by 3.

Let’s say you have the problem 12 divided by 3, you would have to think how many times can you fit 3 into 12? You can fit 3 into 12 4 times. But let’s say you have a number like 10 divided by 3, three won’t evenly fit into 10. So what you would do is put 3 as far as you can without going over 10. It would only fit 3 times leaving you with 1 remaining number. So the answer would end up being 3 remainer 1.

Hope this helps!
