Dividing with Remainders — Easy Worksheet 1

Grade 3 · MathSheets    Name: ____________________   Date: __________

Make as many equal groups as you can. Write division answers like 3 R2.

How to solve

Sometimes things do not share out evenly. For 17 ÷ 5, make groups of 5: 5, 10, 15. That is 3 groups, and 2 are left over. We write 17 ÷ 5 = 3 R2. The left-over part (the remainder) is always smaller than the number you divide by.

Example

Put these 19 stars into groups of 4. How many stars are left over?
