Division of a bowling game

Answer:

FRAME

Hint:

Think of the term used to describe each of the ten segments where you roll the ball, marked by pins being reset after each attempt.

Explanation:

A bowling game is split into ten equal parts called "frames," where each player gets one or two turns to knock down pins. The clue is a straightforward definition—no wordplay or tricks—just naming the basic unit that divides a full game. If you've ever bowled, you know the scorecard tracks progress frame by frame, making this a common term for the sport.
