Max Maths, Year 5, Practice, Dividing 3-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers

In the Max Maths Year 5 practice exercises, students are encouraged to master the skill of dividing 3-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers through the method of long division. The "Let's Try It" section provides a gentle introduction with two examples for students to complete: 207 divided by 3 and 532 divided by 4. This initial step is designed to help students familiarise themselves with the process of long division in a clear and structured manner.

Moving on to the "Let's Practise" section, learners are presented with a series of problems that require them to apply the long division technique they have just learned. The exercises range from simpler divisions such as 255 divided by 3 and 370 divided by 5, to more complex calculations like 1,196 divided by 4 and 3,876 divided by 6. Additionally, the problems include dividing numbers like 7,503 by 3 and 8,205 by 5, as well as 8,238 by 6, providing ample opportunity for students to practise and solidify their understanding of the long division method. For further practice and detailed explanations, students are directed to refer to workbook pages 99 to 101.
