View source for Division (math)

'''Division''' is the [[mathematical]] [[function]] in which a value, the dividend, is seen in a specific conjunction with another value, the [[divisor]]. The relationship between them, which is the value by which the divisor must be [[multiplied]] to yield the dividend, is referred to as the [[quotient]]. Division yields a non-[[linear]] change in value.

Division by [[zero]] is undefined, and this has unfortunately been one of the two most frequent sources of serious mechanical or construction errors (the other being wrong [[unit]]s).
