« In #mathematics #education, #chunking is an elementary approach for solving simple #division.

Compared to the #ShortDivision and #LongDivision methods that are traditionally taught, #chunking may seem strange, unsystematic, and arbitrary. However, it is argued that #chunking […] gives a better introduction to #division, in part because the focus is […] on the whole #calculation and its meaning, rather than just rules for generating successive digits. »
