Answers:
It means that whatever amount is listed before "divided" will later be used in two or more smaller amounts. For example, 3 TBS Olive Oil divided might later show up in the recipe as "Saute mushrooms in 2 TBS of the olive oil" and, later, "Saute the onions in the remaining tablspoon of olive oil"
