What this worksheet covers

Grade: Grade 3 (Elementary School)
Topic: Division

Sharing something into equal amounts is written as an expression, and the quotient is found by running a times table backward. The special forms come first, Dividing 0, Dividing by 1 and Dividing by the Same Number, then word problems on How Much for Each Person (Equal Sharing), How Many Groups and How Many Times as Many, before division reaches past the tables.

In the special forms the answers get swapped, with 8 ÷ 1 given as 1 and 0 ÷ 5 as 5. Setting up the dividend and the divisor the wrong way round, writing something like 3 ÷ 12, is also common. In How Many Times as Many, children build a multiplication instead, and the answer ends up larger than the original number.

Calculation that finds an answer by working a table backward begins here. The sequence of table facts used as a clue is exactly the one finished off in Multiplication. This unit is limited to cases that divide evenly, and that range widens later on in Division with Remainders to cases that do not.
