In a vector divide apparatus having one or few multipliers, a division between two vectors each comprising a plurality of vector elements is performed. A predetermined number of partial quotients are repetitively calculated for each division between vector elements by using the multiplier. In order not to overlap the division operation between consecutive vector elements during calculation of partial quotients using the multiplier, the period of starting the division between vector elements is shortened whereby the vector divide apparatus can be pipelined.
