Introduction to Division Concepts
Choose or write the best answer for each question. Show your working where there is space.
Division ideas
1.Which statement best describes division?
- Combining amounts to find a total
- Splitting an amount into equal shares or equal groups
- Finding how much larger one number is than another
- Counting by adding the same number
2.Tick every situation that can be worked out using division.
- Sharing 24 fossil cards equally between 6 teams
- Putting 32 pebbles into groups of 8
- Adding 9 shells to a collection of 5 shells
- Finding how many groups of 7 fit into 35
3.Use the fact 6 × 4 = 24 to choose both related division facts.
- 24 ÷ 6 = 4 and 24 ÷ 4 = 6
- 24 ÷ 6 = 6 and 24 ÷ 4 = 4
- 6 ÷ 24 = 4 and 4 ÷ 24 = 6
- 24 ÷ 3 = 8 and 24 ÷ 8 = 3
4.Work out 35 ÷ 5 = .
Draw 18 small fossil finds arranged in 3 equal groups. Then write how many are in each group.
Sharing and grouping
5.Mere has 28 fossil stickers to share equally among 4 dig teams. How many stickers does each team get? Write a division equation as well.
6.Aisha sorts 36 small stones into bags of 6. How many bags can she fill? Write a division equation.
7.Match each division equation to its answer.
- 32 ÷ 4
- 45 ÷ 5
- 42 ÷ 6
- 56 ÷ 8
- 7
- 9
- 7
- 8
8.In your own words, explain how sharing division is different from grouping division. Include an example of each using 20 objects.
9.Ruben finds 7 × 5 = 35 on a dig-team tally card. Write the two division facts in the same fact family.
Division problem solving
10.The dig team has 54 measuring tags. Each storage pouch holds 9 tags. How many pouches are needed to store them all?
11.In 48 ÷ 8 = 6, name the dividend, divisor and quotient.
12.A group of 63 fossil replicas is packed equally into 7 crates. How many replicas go in each crate? Show a number sentence.
