Dividing Using Area Models & Partial Quotients

Front

What is division?

Back

Division is the process of finding out how many times one number is contained within another. It is the opposite of multiplication.

Front

What is a remainder in division?

Back

A remainder is the amount left over after division when one number cannot be divided evenly by another.

Front

What does it mean to divide using area models?

Back

Dividing using area models involves visualizing the division process by breaking down the area into smaller, manageable parts to understand how many times a number fits into another.

Front

What is a partial quotient?

Back

A partial quotient is a method of division where you subtract multiples of the divisor from the dividend step by step, keeping track of how many times you subtract.
