4nbt6 Worksheets
Number and Operations in Base Ten
Use place value understanding and properties of operations to perform multi-digit arithmetic.
6Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-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.

- Use multiplication to check whether a division answer makes sense.
- Check division problems that have remainders by multiplying and adding the remainder.
- Spot when a quotient or remainder is incorrect by comparing it to the original dividend.

- Practice long division with three-digit numbers divided by a single-digit number
- Work through each step of long division: divide, multiply, subtract, bring down
- Find the remainder when a number doesn't divide evenly
- Handle zeros in the quotient when a digit is too small to divide

- Divide a 3-digit number by a 1-digit number to find the quotient and remainder.
- Use partial quotients (chunking) by subtracting groups of the divisor until the dividend is used up.
- Add the partial quotients to get the final quotient and keep track of what is left over.

- Estimate the answer when dividing a 3-digit number by a 2-digit number.
- Round numbers to make division easier to do in your head.
- Use compatible (friendly) numbers to find a close quotient.
- Choose the closest estimate from a set of possible answers.

- Estimate the answer to a division word problem by rounding numbers to make them easier to divide.
- Choose compatible numbers that divide evenly to get a quick, reasonable quotient.
- Use the estimated quotient to decide about how many groups you can make or how many items go in each group.

- Divide items into equal groups and tell how many groups you can make.
- Figure out how many items are left over when they don’t split evenly.
- Write the answer as a quotient with a remainder.

- Practice dividing three-digit numbers by one-digit numbers in word problems that have remainders
- Figure out what the remainder means in the story — like how many are left over, or how many more are needed
- Decide whether the answer should use the quotient, the remainder, or round up based on what the question asks
