About this worksheet
Division facts are the partner of multiplication facts, and third graders who know both can solve problems faster and with more confidence. This worksheet contains 30 division problems with divisors of 2, 3, 4, and 5 and quotients from 1 to 10. Every problem divides evenly, so there are no remainders.
How to use it: the most powerful strategy is to "think multiplication." For 28 ÷ 4, ask, "4 times what equals 28?" Since 4 × 7 = 28, the answer is 7. This connection is exactly what standard 3.OA.B.6 describes: understanding division as an unknown-factor problem. Students who are still building understanding can draw equal groups, arrays, or skip count by the divisor until they reach the dividend (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, which is seven jumps). Pair this worksheet with our Multiplication Facts 2-5 worksheet so students practice both directions of the same fact family.
The answer key lists every quotient in order. Have students check answers by multiplying the quotient by the divisor. Any facts that were slow or incorrect can go on a short list for daily review. A few minutes of practice each day builds fluency better than one long session. This worksheet supports Common Core standards 3.OA.C.7 (fluently multiply and divide within 100) and 3.OA.B.6 (understand division as an unknown-factor problem).
