Solve the Division Problem: +24 ÷ +8 with Positive Integers

Question

$+24:+8=\text{ ?}$

00:00 Solve

00:03 Positive divided by positive is always positive

00:08 Let's write division as a fraction

00:16 Let's break down 24 into factors 8 and 3

00:20 Let's reduce what we can

00:24 And this is the solution to the question

First, let's write the exercise in the form of a simple fraction:

$\frac{24}{8}=$

Next we'll factor 24 into a multiplication exercise:

$\frac{3\times8}{8}=$

Finally we cancel out the 8 in both the numerator and denominator of the fraction to get:

$\frac{3}{1}=3$

$3$
