A remainder is an amount left over after division.

The process of unitising and exchanging between place values is known as regrouping.

Divide a 2-digit by a 1-digit number using representations with exchanging and remainders

Maths

In this unit pupils will divide a 2-digit and 3-digit number by a single-digit number using partitioning and representations with exchanging and remainders. They will divide a 2-digit number by a single-digit number using short division. In the future unit pupils will  use their knowledge of multiplication and division to solve comparison and change problems.

In the prior unit pupils interpreted a division story with a remainder and represented it with an equation. They explained how the remainder related to the divisor. In this unit pupils will divide a 2-digit and a 3-digit number by a single-digit number using partitioning and representations and divide a 2-digit number by a single-digit number by using short division.

Division by partitioning leading to short division (2 and 3-digits by 1-digit)

Order the division expressions in ascending order.

Each child gets 4 cupcakes with 3 leftover. This can be written as 4 r 3

Each child gets 3 cupcakes with 4 leftover. This can be written as 3 r 4

Each child gets 19 cupcakes with 3 leftover. This can be written as 19 r 3

19 cupcakes are shared between 4 children. Choose the correct statement for the representation.
