If the cell cannot stop dividing then a tumour will form. The tumour can be cancerous or benign. Uncontrolled cell division may be caused by substances called carcinogens (e.g. in cigarettes) which can switch the P53 gene off. This gene is responsible for controlling cell division.

How do you divide the numerator by denominator without a calculator?

First, you have to divide the numerator and then you have to divide the denominator.


How do you calculate factors?

Read slowly. You must first find the smallest number that can be divided into the number you want to factor without leaving a remainder. Whatever the result is, you divide again by a number that allows you to divide it without leaving a remainder. You continue to divide until you have broken if you divide it any further the answer will be 1. The numbers that you have used to divide are then lined up side by side and you place periods (multiplication symbols) between each one. This symbolizes that in order to get the number you have just factored you must multiply the numbers in this way.
