Whole Number ÷ Whole Number - Breaking into 1s 5-67

Divide whole numbers that aren't multiples of the divisor. Break the total into ones and apply the distributive property. What's 2÷3? Since 2 = 1+1, 2÷3 = (1+1)÷3 = (1÷3)+(1÷3) = 1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3. What's 3÷5? It's (1+1+1)÷5 = 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 = 3/5. Find and add partial quotients to get the total quotient. Algorithm? x÷y = x/y.
