Various Word Problems worksheets for Grade 4 (Elementary School)

What this unit covers

Reading a situation and turning it into expressions is trained here with division at the center. Alongside patterns of sharing and distributing, such as Dividing in Two Steps, Dividing All at Once, Dividing Then Using and Multiplying Then Dividing, come cost problems asking for a total or for change, and problems that work from a sum and a difference.

In Dividing in Two Steps, children collapse the two divisions into one and divide by just one of the numbers rather than by their product. With Sum and Difference, the order gets reversed: instead of subtracting the difference from the total and then halving, they halve first and subtract the difference from that.
