Let’s solve each problem step by step.

Problem 1: Share 40 buttons equally between 4 jars.
We need to divide 40 buttons into 4 equal groups (one for each jar).
So, we do:
40 4 = 10
That means each jar gets
10 buttons.
✔ Check: 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 40 → Correct!
---
Problem 2: Share 10 biscuits equally between 5 people.
Divide 10 biscuits among 5 people.
So, we do:
10 5 = 2
Each person gets
2 biscuits.
✔ Check: 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 10 → Correct!
---
Problem 3: Share 18 strawberries equally between 2 plates.
Divide 18 strawberries into 2 equal groups.
So, we do:
18 ÷ 2 = 9
Each plate gets
9 strawberries.
✔ Check: 9 + 9 = 18 → Correct!

Final Answer:
1. 10 buttons in each jar
2. 2 biscuits each
3. 9 on each plate
