Multiplication and Division (2) - Division with remainders (2) - Worksheet

The worksheet provides a series of division problems with remainders, designed to help children apply their understanding of this concept through practical word problems. For instance, children are asked to determine how many sweets Helen can distribute evenly among her friends from a total of 3,289 sweets, and to calculate the remainder. Similarly, they are tasked with figuring out how many toy cars can be packed into small boxes after filling large boxes with 5,555 cars, with each large box containing 9 cars. The worksheet encourages children to cut out these problems and physically demonstrate their working out, fostering both mathematical fluency and precision.

Additional problems on the worksheet prompt students to calculate the number of packs Paolo would need for 6,824 balloons when packed in groups of 8, and to work out the number of fully filled shelves in a library that has 8,028 books, with each shelf holding 7 books. The worksheet also includes problems related to a bakery that has made 4,684 cherry cupcakes and needs to determine how many can fit on small trays after filling large trays with 8 cupcakes each. Scouts camping is another scenario where children must figure out how many tents are needed for 1,990 scouts if three can sleep in one tent. These real-world scenarios are designed to enhance children's understanding of division with remainders, making the mathematical concept more tangible and easier to grasp.
