Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division - Long division - 4-digits by 2-digits (no remainders) - Presentation

The presentation focuses on enhancing students' proficiency in long division, specifically dividing four-digit numbers by two-digit numbers without remainders. It begins by encouraging pupils to think about how multiples can be used to simplify the process of long division. Through a series of slides, students are presented with examples and step-by-step instructions on how to apply the long division method. An example provided shows the division of 4,889 by 15, illustrating the process of breaking down the problem into manageable parts using multiples of the divisor to find the quotient.

Further activities guide students to practice their long division skills with additional problems, such as dividing 2,208 by 16 and 1,755 by 45. The presentation also includes real-world applications, asking students to calculate the number of teams in a football tournament with 2,028 players, considering 11 players and 2 substitutes per team. Another practical example involves dividing 8,352 pieces of Lego into 87 boxes to find out how many pieces go into each box. The lesson aims to solidify the concept of division as repeated subtraction and to understand the significance of bringing down the next digit in the long division process. The presentation concludes with reasoning questions that challenge students to compare the difficulty of different division problems and to identify missing factors in given equations.
