3 / 2 -> 3 - 1/2 -1/2 -1/2 = 3/2 
5 / 3 does NOT = 5 - 1/3 -1/3 - 1/3 - 1/3 - 1/3 = 3 + 1/3
5 / 3 -> 5 - 2/3 - 2/3 - 2/3 - 2/3 - 2/3 = 1 + 2/3
what im saying is division is repeated subtracted of a fraction where the numerator is 1 less than the denominator, which is = to the divisor. the repetition number IS = to the dividend
like 5 / 4 = 5 - 3/4 -3/4 - 3/4 - 3/4 - 3/4
5 / 3 does NOT = 5 - 1/3 -1/3 - 1/3 - 1/3 - 1/3 = 3 + 1/3
5 / 3 -> 5 - 2/3 - 2/3 - 2/3 - 2/3 - 2/3 = 1 + 2/3
