  Repeated subtraction means taking away or subtracting the same number

                or number of objects again and again from the bigger number till it

                becomes 0.
               Ex-



















        Here in the above example 5 is taken away from 25 again and again unless it

        becomes 0. (25-5=20, 20-5=15, 15-5=10, 10-5=5, 5-5=0)


        Learning Outcome: The students are able to understand the meaning of

        repeated subtraction.





        Lesson 21.2-  Repeated subtraction as division


        Learning Objective: The students will be able to show repeated subtraction as

        division.


        Explanation:


              Repeated subtraction is called division.

              We use division only when we want to share equally.

              Division is a process of equal distribution.
              When we are repeatedly subtracting a number from another bigger


               number until it becomes 0, it can be represented as division (÷)
