I want to divide the number of elements in large sharedArray in to 10 parts and store them in 10 small arrays.
if shared array has 1000 elements,then the splitted arrays should have 100 elements each.

Use two nested for loops, index one running from 0 to 9, index two running from 0 to 99, and within inner loop do the reassignments. The exact syntax depends on what system/shell/tool you are using (which you do not mention. The entire specification is utterly sparse!).
