Division in Class 4

Division means splitting a number into equal groups. In Class 4, students advance to long division, a systematic method for dividing larger numbers.

Key Concepts:

  • Dividend - The number being divided (inside the division bracket)
  • Divisor - The number we divide by (outside the division bracket)
  • Quotient - The answer we get from division
  • Remainder - What's left over when division isn't exact
  • Division Formula - Dividend = (Divisor × Quotient) + Remainder

Example: In 156 ÷ 12, the dividend is 156, divisor is 12, quotient is 13, and remainder is 0.

Solved Example: Long Division Step-by-Step

Problem: A library has 156 books to arrange equally on 12 shelves. How many books go on each shelf?

Long division example showing how 156 books divided by 12 shelves equals 13 books per shelf with quotient and remainder highlighted.

Steps:

  1. How many 12s fit in 15? Answer: 1. Write 1 above.
  2. Multiply: 12 × 1 = 12. Subtract: 15 - 12 = 3.
  3. Bring down the 6 to make 36.
  4. How many 12s fit in 36? Answer: 3. Write 3 above.
  5. Multiply: 12 × 3 = 36. Subtract: 36 - 36 = 0.

Answer: Each shelf gets 13 books. Check: 12 × 13 = 156 ✓

Division Worksheet Sample Problems

Preview problem types included in the printable PDF:

  • Basic Division: Solve 48 ÷ 6 = ____
  • Division with Remainders: Find quotient and remainder for 37 ÷ 5 = ____ R ____
  • Fill in the Blank: 63 ÷ ____ = 9
  • Word Problem with Visual: A farmer has 96 eggs and packs them in cartons of 12 each. How many cartons does he fill?
  • Multi-Step Challenge: A sweet shop has 864 laddoos packed in boxes of 24 each. After filling all boxes, if 3 are sold, how many remain?
  • Reverse Division: If 468 ÷ 12 = 39, then what is 468 ÷ 39?
  • Formula Application: A number divided by 14 gives quotient 23 and remainder 8. Find the original number.

Common Mistakes & Tips

Common Mistakes to Avoid:

  • Bringing Down Digits Too Early: In long division, students often bring down the next digit before completing the current step. Always multiply and subtract before bringing down.
  • Incorrect Placement of Quotient: When dividing 156 by 12, students might write the quotient digits in wrong positions. Each quotient digit should align with the dividend digit you're working with.
  • Forgetting the Remainder: In problems like 37 ÷ 5, students write just 7 instead of 7 R 2. Always check if there's anything left over.
  • Not Checking Answers: Students skip verification. Always check: (Divisor × Quotient) + Remainder should equal the Dividend.
  • Division by Zero Confusion: Some students think any number divided by zero equals zero or the number itself. Division by zero is undefined.

Top 5 Pro-Tips:

  1. Use the DMSB Method: Divide, Multiply, Subtract, Bring down. Follow this sequence every time for long division accuracy.
  2. Estimate Before You Divide: For 156 ÷ 12, think "12 times what is close to 15?" This helps you find the first quotient digit quickly.
  3. Always Verify Your Answer: Use the division formula to check: (12 × 13) + 0 = 156. This catches calculation errors.
  4. Practice Times Tables: Strong multiplication facts make division much easier. If you know 12 × 3 = 36 instantly, division becomes faster.
  5. Remainder Must Be Smaller: The remainder must always be less than the divisor. If you get 37 ÷ 5 = 7 R 5, something's wrong because the remainder equals the divisor.

Assessing Learning: Scoring Guide

Total Questions: 24 | Total Marks: 24

Score: 22 – 24 (Outstanding! ⭐⭐⭐)

  • Next Step: You're a division master! Try Class 5 division with decimals or tackle more complex multi-step word problems.

Score: 18 – 21 (Excellent! ⭐⭐)

  • Next Step: Strong skills! Practice long division with larger numbers and focus on word problems to reach mastery level.

Score: 14 – 17 (Very Good! ⭐)

  • Next Step: Good foundation! Review the long division steps carefully and practice problems with remainders to improve accuracy.

Score: 10 – 13 (Good Effort! 💪)

  • Next Step: Focus on the DMSB method (Divide, Multiply, Subtract, Bring down). Practice with smaller numbers first, then gradually increase difficulty.

Score: Below 10 (Keep Trying! 📚)

  • Next Step: Build fundamentals first. Review multiplication tables, practice simple division facts, and work on division with single-digit divisors before attempting long division. Ask for help from a teacher or parent.
