Division is a way to find out how many times one number can fit into another number.
Imagine you have a big bag of candies, and you want to divide them equally between 4 kids. You can use division to find out how many candies each kid gets.
Here's an example:
If you have 20 candies and you want to divide them between 4 kids, you would write:
20 ÷ 4 = 5
The answer, 5, means that each kid gets 5 candies.
So, when you divide one number by another number, you are finding out how many times the second number fits into the first number. The symbol ÷ is used to show division.
It's just like sharing things equally! With a little practice, you'll be dividing like a pro!
