If a question is capable of standing as three separate parts, can one motion to divide the question divide it into 3 parts or only 2?

 

Slightly related, if a resolution is being considered by paragraph and the previous question is moved and adopted, does it force a vote on the entire resolution as a whole at that point?

It can be divided into as many questions as there are separate parts.

Yes, although it does not apply to the preamble unless that is expressly ordered.

Does that mean in the scenario where there is a preamble, if the previous question in its unqualified form is adopted, the assembly would stop debate on the body and start debating the preamble before taking a vote on the entire motion?
