You and your 4 friends rent a beach house for spring break. At the end of the week, your total bill comes to $2800. You all decide to split the cost equally. How much does each person pay?

You drove 475 miles on 18 gallons of gas. What is your fuel economy (mpg)

Those are 2 of many scenarios where you would need division. Most people use calculators nowadays anyway and there are few "life or death" situations where you would need to learn division, but it's something you shouldn't take for granted. Every piece of technology that you use relies on mathematics at some level whether it be on the research level, the design level, or the manufacturing level and on.
