Find whole-number quotients of whole numbers with up to four-digit dividends and
two-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations,
and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the
calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
The series of lessons in Topic F lead students to divide multi-digit dividends by two-digit divisors using the
written vertical method. Each lesson moves to a new level of difficulty with a sequence beginning with
divisors that are multiples of 10 to non-multiples of 10. Two instructional days are devoted to single-digit
quotients with and without remainders before progressing to two- and three-digit quotients (5.NBT.6).
A Teaching Sequence Toward Mastery of Partial Quotients and Multi-Digit Whole Number Division
Objective 1: Divide two- and three-digit dividends by multiples of 10 with single-digit quotients, and
make connections to a written method.
(Lesson 19)
Objective 2: Divide two- and three-digit dividends by two-digit divisors with single-digit quotients, and
make connections to a written method.
(Lessons 20–21)
Objective 3: Divide three- and four-digit dividends by two-digit divisors resulting in two- and three-digit
quotients, reasoning about the decomposition of successive remainders in each place
value.
