The dromedary, or one-humped camel, was described by Linnaeus in 1758. There are no true wild dromedaries in the world today-they were domesticated between 4,000 and 2,000 B.C.E. for travel, meat and milk, and running, and became extinct in the wild around 2000 years ago.
Dividends and divisors are the two key ingredients that yield the quotient, or answer, to a division problem. The dividend is the number being divided, while the divisor is the number by which the dividend is divided. In other words, given aÃ·b, a is the dividend and b is the divisor.
How to Divide. Division is the inverse of multiplication. a divided by b equals c is written as $\frac{a}{b}$ = c. It is denoted by 'Ã·' or '/'. Here, 'a' is called the dividend, 'b' the divisor and 'c' the quotient. Division of numbers can be done by different types:1.ivision of fractions can be done by simplifying the fractions first and then dividing them as explained in the following example. Example: How to Divide fraction $\frac{3}{4}$ by $\frac{9}{8}$. Given fractions: $\frac{3}{4}$ and $\frac{9}{8}$. $\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{9}{8}}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ = 0.5. Back to Top.
