Division Reminders


Some of you do not know your multiplication facts which makes it VERY hard for you to do division. You can still list the multiples of the divisor carefully on your paper by adding and then use that help you divide. For example, if the problem is 325 divided by 5, then you could list the multiples of 5 to help you solve the problem. You would just add 5 each time to get your multiples OR you could take the time to write out a multiplication chart. Over the break, make sure you learn the facts that you are struggling with so that Math will be easier for you! We use multiplication in fractions too!

Some of you need to remember the steps of division:

1. Divide
2. Multiply
3. Subtract
4. Bring down

You just repeat those steps over and over until you finish and have nothing left to bring down. Remember the funny sentence we came up with,
"Dead Monkeys Stink Bad"

YOU CAN DO IT!
