MATLAB: Splitting a column (and a numerical value in that column) into multiple columns

column splittingdata analysisvalue splitting

Hello, I have a following problem: I have multiple columns in a matrix. In all of the columns I have a numerical value, let's say 20. I need to (under some conditions) split a single column into 5 separate ones, and I need these 5 columns to carry a number which is the original 20 divided by the new number of columns – 5 (so at the end I will have, out of one column with a number 20 in it – five columns with a number 4 in them). Does anyone have an idea how could I do that? Thanks!
