Concept in Definition ABC

The concept of dividers It corresponds to plural of the term divider, while a divisor in its most general use calls that which has the mission, function of dividing or separating something. Thus, a bar, a wall, or a table can have the function of a divider at the behest of a space. This type of division is normally carried out with the mission of achieving greater privacy in a certain area of ​​the house.

At the request of design It turns out to be very common to use certain elements that fulfill a decorative function in a space, such as a piece of furniture, so that they also exercise a divisive role in it, according to the needs raised in that sense.

On the other hand, the word divisor is widely used in the field of math to refer to those numbers, values that are able to divide another number into equal parts.

With an example we will see it better... 12 is a divisor of 3 since 12/3 is equal to 4 which is a whole number, Meanwhile, 12 will not be a divisor of 5 because if we do that division it will give us a non-integer result: 2,4.

In the operation of the division, the divisor will be that number that will be contents so many times in another that we call a dividend.

Divisors in mathematics are certainly useful when it comes to having to group a certain amount of elements or objects, in exactly equal parts, in a group and without any element or object being left alone or pivoting.

Let's go back to the example of quantities that we offered lines above, now we have 12 pencils and the idea is to make packages with all that quantity and that we do not none of them is left out, then, to effectively comply with that slogan we must make 1 package of 12, 2 packages of six each, 3 packages of 4. In this way, no element will be loose, this also allows us to appreciate that the number 1, 2 and 3 are divisors of 12.

It should be noted that the number 1 is always a divisor of any number and every number is divisible per se.
