Divisor: The number you divide by.
Quotient: The answer to a division problem.
Common Mistakes
- Confusing the product/dividend with a factor/divisor.
- Not recognizing all four related facts in a family.
- Incorrectly applying the inverse operation.
Differentiation
SupportProvide number bonds or visual models to build families.
ChallengeChallenge with larger numbers or multi-step word problems.
Discussion Questions
- How are multiplication and division related to each other?
- What numbers are always included in a fact family?
- Why is understanding fact families useful in math?
- Can a fact family ever have fewer than four facts?
Extension Activities
- Create division word problems.
- Use arrays to show division.
- Play division bingo.
Parent Tip
Use objects to model division and ask 'how many groups?' or 'how many in each group?'.
