Four in Four - Division Set J 3 digit number - 2, 4 6, 8 or 10 no remainder

The "Four in Four" challenge, designed by KS2Gems in 2021, is an engaging and timed activity for Year 4 students to practice their division skills. The task requires pupils to complete four division calculations within four minutes, each involving a three-digit number divided by one of the even divisors—2, 4, 6, 8, or 10—without leaving any remainder. Each worksheet presents a new set of numbers to divide, ensuring that students have ample opportunity to reinforce their understanding and speed in performing division calculations. The numbers chosen for division are carefully selected to ensure that the results are whole numbers, thereby reinforcing the concept of divisibility and division without remainders.

The exercise is structured into ten different sheets, each containing four division problems for the students to solve. For example, one sheet might include calculations such as 248 ÷ 4 and 328 ÷ 8, while another might have 368 ÷ 8 and 828 ÷ 4. The variety of problems across the sheets aims to provide comprehensive practice and to challenge students' ability to quickly divide larger numbers. To assist both students and educators, an answer key is provided for each sheet, detailing the correct outcomes for the division problems. This allows for immediate feedback and helps to identify areas where further practice may be needed. The "Four in Four" activity is a practical tool for enhancing mental arithmetic skills and ensuring mastery of division concepts in a fun and time-bound format.
