Default Division help?

In MS Excel I would like to show a quotient in three separate columns such as
16/3 = 5 + 5 + 6. Can this be done? Please let me know a.s.a.p.

I can't deduce the logic you are applying here. Can you post some more
examples of what you want to input and how you would like the output to
appear?

If you put 16 in A1,
you can put this in B1: =int(a1/3)
you can put this in C1: =b1
you can put this in D1: =a1-b1-c1

Thanks very much. This is excellent. I guess I have to start thinking
"outside the box." Please excuse the cliche.

I've got a new question. What is the formula for changing information in one
field on a worksheet and update that same informationin the appropriate field
on another worksheet?

You can "pull" the information from one cell to another with a formula like:

=if('sheet1'!="","",'sheet1'!a1)

If you have a table of values and want to return a value from a cell on the same
row, you could use =vlookup() or =index(match()).

You may want to read Debra Dalgleish's notes:
http://www.contextures.com/xlFunctions02.html (for =vlookup())
and
http://www.contextures.com/xlFunctions03.html (for =index(match()))
