The number line you described illustrates the division problem **10 divided by 2 = 5**.
Here’s the reasoning:
- The number line progresses from 0 to 10 in increments of 2 (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10).
- When you count how many times you can fit the number 2 into 10, it fits 5 times (2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 10).
- Therefore, the division problem represented by the number line is indeed **10 divided by 2 = 5**.
