"Four thousand divided by one thousand is four."

Translation: Négyezerben az ezer az négy.

[joey-1105]

Why is "az" required before "ezer"? "Négyezerben ezer az négy" is marked as incorrect.

[Arcaeca]

So when you use az to mean "equals", it's always az regardless of if the number begins with a vowel or not?

[vvsey]

Yes, because it stands for "that (is)", and not a definite article.

[Hulk014]

Yes. You could also say. "Négyezerben az ezer egyenlő (equals) néggyel."

[ray0917]

Négyezer osztva ezerrel egyenlő néggyel

[DnesGyrgy]

That is the best Hungarian translation . At least, we learned it this way in the primary school.

[Arpad737071]

Négyezer osztva ezerrel az négy.
