Dividing by 3 means splitting a number into three equal groups. Think of it like sharing a pizza equally among three friends. For example, if you have 12 slices of pizza and divide it by 3, each friend gets 4 slices because $12 \div 3 = 4$. Mastering your 3 times tables will make division a breeze!
