### note

«into N groups/boxes» names the number of shares: divide; «partitioned into» and «subdivided into» in an exam do the same. Trap: «puts 3 more into the box» just adds 3. «4 goes into 20» means 20 ÷ 4 = 5: the bigger number is the one shared. «into» is one word (movement); «in to» is two words in sentences like «hand your work in to the teacher». «be into» is about liking, not maths.
