35 ÷ 5
35 cookies need to be shared equally among 5 friends. How many cookies does each friend get?
Dividing by 5 means finding how many equal groups of 5 fit inside a number.
Let's skip-count by 5s on a number line until we land on 35.
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 — that's 7 jumps of 5!
So we can write this as: 35 divided by 5.
Let's check: 5 times 7 equals 35. That matches!
35 divided by 5 equals 7. Each friend gets 7 cookies!
