1 0 Dividing can be done in two ways : ‘grouping’ and ‘sharing.’ When grouping, we repeatedly subtract ‘groups’ of the same size from the total, to find the total number of ‘groups.’ Here’s an example: Eggs come in boxes of 6. How many boxes would we need for 20 eggs? What about the two eggs that are left over? The question asks ‘How many boxes would we need for 20 eggs?’ From the picture above, we see that we have 3 full boxes of eggs, but we need another box to put the two eggs that are left over. 20 ÷ 6 = 3 remainder 2 Answer : 4 boxes are needed for 20 eggs 2 0 Dividing can be done in two ways : ‘grouping’ and ‘sharing.’ When sharing, we distribute the total evenly between a specific number. Here’s an example: A bag contains 9 oranges. The oranges are to be shared equally among 3 children. How many oranges will each child get? one for you……… one for you………one for you 3 oranges 3 oranges 3 oranges 9 ÷ 3 = 3 Answer : Each child gets 3 oranges 3 0 75 ÷ 5 5 1 5 7 5 - 5 0 2 5 - 2 5 10 x 5 5 x 5 1 1 2 x x 5 5 = = 1 5 0 5 x 5 = 2 5 0 x 5 = 5 0 0 75 ÷ 5 = 15 75 ÷ 15 = 5 15 x 5 = 75 5 x 15 = 75 4 0 69 ÷ 4 1 4 7 r. 1 6 9 - 4 0 2 9 - 2 0 8 x x 4 4 = = 4 8 5 x 4 = 2 0 0 x 4 = 4 0 10 x 4 5 x 4 9 - 1 2 1 2 x 4 1 69 ÷ 4 = 17r.1 69 ÷ 17 = 4r.1 17 x 4 + 1 = 69 4 x 17 + 1 = 69 5 0 854 ÷ 7 1 2 2 8 5 4 - 7 0 0 1 5 4 7 - 1 4 0 1 4 1 4 0 1 1 2 5 0 x x x x 7 7 7 7 0 0 0 0 x x x x 7 7 7 7 = = = = = = = = 1 3 7 7 4 5 0 1 3 7 7 4 5 0 0 0 0 0 100 x 7 20 x 7 1 2 x 7 1 2 5 0 6 755 ÷ 6 1 2 5 r.5 7 5 5 - 6 0 0 1 5 5 6 - 1 2 0 3 5 3 0 5 1 1 2 5 0 x x x x 6 6 6 6 0 0 0 0 x x x x 6 6 6 6 = = = = = = = = 1 3 6 6 2 0 0 1 3 6 6 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 100 x 6 20 x 6 1 1 2 5 0 5 x 6 755 ÷ 6 = 125r.5 755 ÷ 125 = 6r.5 125 x 6 + 5 = 755 6 x 125 + 5 = 755 7 972 ÷ 36 2 7 9 7 2 - 7 2 0 2 5 2 1 8 0 3 6 - 7 2 7 2 0 1 1 2 5 0 x x x x 3 3 3 3 6 6 6 6 0 0 0 0 x x x x 3 3 3 3 6 6 6 6 = = = = = = = = 1 3 1 3 3 7 8 6 6 2 0 0 3 7 8 6 6 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 20 x 36 5 x 36 1 1 2 5 0 2 x 36 972 ÷ 36 = 27 972 ÷ 27 = 36 27 x 36 = 972 36 x 27 = 972 8 561 ÷ 43 1 3 r.2 5 6 1 - 4 3 0 1 3 1 8 6 4 3 - 4 5 4 3 2 1 1 2 5 0 x x x x 4 4 4 4 3 3 3 3 0 0 0 0 x x x x 4 4 4 4 3 3 3 3 = = = = = = = = 2 4 2 4 4 8 1 3 3 6 5 0 4 8 1 3 3 6 5 0 0 0 0 0 10 x 43 2 x 43 1 1 2 5 0 1 x 43 561 ÷ 43 = 13r.2 561 ÷ 13 = 43r.2 13 x 43 + 2 = 561 43 x 13 + 2 = 561 9 87.5 ÷ 7 1 2 . 5 7 8 7 . 5 - 7 0 . 0 1 7 . 5 - 1 4 . 0 1 3 . 5 0 x x x x 7 7 7 7 = = = = 1 3 7 7 4 5 0 10 x 7 0 0 0 1 2 x 7 3 . 5 - 1 2 5 0 . . . . 1 2 5 0 x x x x 7 7 7 7 = = = = 0.5 x 43 87.5 ÷ 7 = 12.5 12.5 x 7 = 87.5 87.5 ÷ 12.5 = 7 7 x 12.5 = 87.5 0 1 3 7 . . . . 7 4 5 0
