    This document is a math module from a learning center in the Philippines about division as repeated subtraction. It provides examples of how division can be expressed as repeatedly subtracting the same number of items from a larger group until there are none left or the remainder is smaller than the number being subtracted. Specific examples shown include dividing 34 stars into groups of 4 stars and dividing 12 cookies into groups of 3 cookies. Students are asked to solve additional division problems using this repeated subtraction method. The objective is for students to relate the process of division to subtracting equal groups.

    Concept Notes & Examples

    Division may be expressed as a repeated subtraction. We subtract the same number as many times
    as possible until the difference becomes 0. Division shows equal partitioning of a set of objects.

    What is Repeated Subtraction?


    Repeated subtraction is a method of subtracting the equal number of items from a larger group. It is also known
    as division.
    If the same number is repeatedly subtracted from another larger number until the remainder is zero or a number
    smaller than the number being subtracted, we can write that in the form of division.
    For example:
    If there are 25 balls and we form a group of 5 balls each.

    Here, the number 5 has been repeatedly subtracted 5 times. We can say that the number 5 has been subtracted 5 times from 25. So, we can write
    this subtraction as 25 ÷ 5 = 5.

    Here are a few examples of repeated subtraction.

    There are 34 stars. How many groups of 4 stars in each can be formed?

    In the given image we can see 34 stars. Now, using repeated subtraction, we can group them in smaller
    groups of 4 stars in each group. We can start to subtract 4 stars repeatedly until we are left with 0 or a number
    less than 4.

    1
    34 - 4 = 30 30 - 4 = 26 26 - 4 = 22 22 - 4 = 18 18 - 4 = 14 14 - 4 = 10 10 - 4 = 6 6-4=2

    We get 8 groups of 4 and with 2 stars remaining.

    This example can be mathematically written as 34 ÷ 4. Where 34 is the dividend. The divisor is the number of
    stars in each group, that is, 4. The number of times 4 is subtracted is the quotient. So, 8 is the quotient and the
    leftover stars are the remainder. So, 2 is the remainder.
