Delením

"Delením" is a Czech word that translates to "division" in English. It refers to the arithmetic operation of dividing one number by another. In mathematics, division is one of the four basic operations, alongside addition, subtraction, and multiplication. It is used to determine how many times one quantity is contained within another.

The process of division involves a dividend, a divisor, and a quotient. The dividend is the number being divided, the divisor is the number by which the dividend is divided, and the quotient is the result of the division. For example, in the expression 10 / 2 = 5, 10 is the dividend, 2 is the divisor, and 5 is the quotient.

Division can also result in a remainder. This occurs when the dividend is not perfectly divisible by the divisor. For instance, when 11 is divided by 2, the quotient is 5 with a remainder of 1. This can be expressed as 11 = (2 * 5) + 1.

The symbol for division is typically a forward slash (/) or an obelus (÷). In algebraic expressions, division is often represented by a fraction bar, where the dividend is the numerator and the divisor is the denominator. Division is a fundamental concept in arithmetic and is used extensively in various fields, including science, engineering, and finance.
