Division Worksheets & Study Resources:

Brief definition
Division is one of the four fundamental basic math operations. Division is actually a repeated subtraction. It is the process of deducting the same number over and over again until a remainder, if any, is obtained. Traditionally, this operation is always being learned last by the learners after addition, subtraction, and multiplication. Division is the complete opposite of multiplication as it exhibits equal or fair sharing of objects or numbers.

Typically, division is being introduced to 3rd graders. Here, they need to understand that division means clustering a given set of objects into desired equal groups. They also learn how to create division sentences and identify its parts. As they step up to higher levels, the nature of numbers that the learners are dealing with becomes wider. At first, they only need to divide whole numbers, but as they reach the 4th grade, they now divide whole numbers, decimals, and like fractions. From 6th grade up to high school, learners deal with division of algebraic expressions, polynomials, functions, and many more.

Importance of the Topic
Learning division will complete the understanding of four basic math operations. Having a strong foundation of division means a learner has now reached mastery of the topic. Absorbing the concepts and procedures under division is important because more advanced lessons in mathematics require a good understanding of division. Aside from the universal and flexible use of this topic across all age groups and grade levels, division has many applications in our day-to-day living.

Application of the Learned Topic in Life
Division can be applied to solve various life scenarios. This topic can be used when you want to create equal slices of pizza among your friends, put the same number of milk bottles in a few boxes, share the same amount of money among your siblings or family members, divide a 5-meter rope into 10 equal lengths, and many more.
