Divisible and Indivisible Quantities
Objects that are countable, such as fruits or animals, are called divisible quantities. Objects that are not
countable, such as the length of a stick or the amount of water, are called indivisible quantities.
Examples of divisible quantities Examples of indivisible quantities

three apples three chicks, four chicks length of a stick amount of water
