Division Table for 8
Each row divides 8 by numbers 1 through 12. Division answers "how many groups?" and is the inverse of multiplication.
Exact rows: 8 ÷ 1 = 8, 8 ÷ 2 = 4, 8 ÷ 4 = 2, 8 ÷ 8 = 1; every other row leaves a decimal, rounded to four places here. Row 8 lands on exactly 1 — a number divided by itself. Row 2 is the halving row: 8 ÷ 2 = 4 splits 8 exactly in two. Every correct quotient times its divisor returns 8, which is the 8 times table read backward — division and multiplication are one table seen from two ends.

What is a quotient?
The quotient is the result of a division. In this table every quotient is the right-hand value, from 8 ÷ 1 = 8 onward.
Why do some quotients have decimals?
When 8 is not exactly divisible by a number, the result has a decimal. For example 8 ÷ 2 = 4. Division keeps the exact value; multiplication only gives whole numbers when the divisor divides evenly.
