Thread Subject: How to divide matrix by vector

I have a matrix MxN and want each element in a column to divide by the same scalar. It means if I have N columns, I have N scalars forming a vector with N numbers.

Example:

Matrix 123
         456

divided by (2,4,5}

what I want to get is a new matrix with these elements:
1/2 2/4 3/5
4/2 5/4 6/5

Any help is appreciated.

bsxfun(@rdivide, [1 2 3; 4 5 6],[2 4 5])
