Umm divisions is just the opposite of multiplication, Remember these few steps and you can do it: Divide multiply subtract bring down repeat. Dividing is the opposite meaning 12*12=144 144 divided by 12 = 12 if that helps.

Division is basically the opposite of multiplication. If you know multiplication division will come easy to you. I recommend flash cards and learning sites to practice and get the skill down :)
