Normal division is basically... normal division. For example: print (31/4) #7.75 But floor division rounds down the answer to the nearest integer. For example, print(31//4) #7 (you throw away everything after the decimal point). Hope this helped. 😉

Also, always gives a float for normal division. For example: 10/2 => 5.0 10//2 => 5
