This math topic practices solving division word problems involving small integers. It has seven problems where students divide total items or amounts evenly among groups, determining how many items or parts each group has. The problems involve practical scenarios like distributing candies among children or calculating how many apples a koala eats, based on the total weight and the weight of each apple. Multiple choice answers are provided for each question to help practice basic division skills and interpretive reasoning within a daily context.
