Solution By Steps

Step 1: Understand the Division Operation

Division is the process of splitting a quantity into equal parts. In this case, we are dividing 500 by 50.

Step 2: Perform the Division

To find the result of 500 divided by 50, we need to determine how many times 50 fits into 500.

500 \div 50 = 10

This is because 50 multiplied by 10 equals 500:

50 imes 10 = 500

Final Answer

Melinda’s statement is true because when 500 is divided by 50, the result is 10.
