Unfortunately, I don't have much context to what plant we are mentioning. I won't be able to be of much assistance, as care and division will have much to do with what plant we are discussing. Typically, with most bulbs, they will be divided in such a way where you will be able to see "eyes" or bud growths that will be next year's growth on each segment. Each will be planted in their own container. When to do so will depend on the type of plant in question.

Just as a reference, here is an article on Dahlia division:
