3 “goes into” 12 evenly
Hi, Does the above statement is meant to convey that the quotient is even ? or is it meant to convey that the remainder is 0? I am particularly concerned with the word "evenly". Thanks, in advance!

x divides k evenly, just means that x is a factor of k, divides k without leaving a remainder. For example, 3 divides 12 evenly --> 12/3=4.
Hope it helps.
