About this worksheet
Six 2-digit by 1-digit long division problems with a box for every digit of the work: quotient boxes on top, the product and the difference under each digit, an arrow for the digit to bring down and a box for the remainder. The four steps are listed at the top, and the key shows every box filled in. Expect it to take fourth graders about 15 to 20 minutes with careful work.
Tips for using it
- Say every division fact as a multiplication question: 42 divided by 6 means 6 times what is 42?
- In long division, line up the digits in columns; graph paper or wide spacing stops most mistakes.
- Check the answer by multiplying back and adding the remainder.
