Use Division NotationSo far we have explored addition, subtraction, and multiplication. Now let’s consider division. Suppose you have the 12 cookies in and want to package them in bags with 4 cookies in each bag. How many bags would we need?
You might put 4 cookies in first bag, 4 in the second bag, and so on until you run out of cookies. Doing it this way, you would fill 3 bags. In other words, starting with the 12 cookies, you would take away, or subtract, 4 cookies at a time. Division is a way to represent repeated subtraction just as multiplication represents repeated addition. Instead of subtracting 4 repeatedly, we can write We read this as twelve divided by four and the result is the quotient of 12 and 4. The quotient is 3 because we can subtract 4 from 12 exactly 3 times. We call the number being divided the dividend and the number dividing it the divisor. In this case, the dividend is 12 and the divisor is 4. In the past you may have used the notation 412, but this division also can be written as 12÷4,12/4,124. In each case the 12 is the dividend and the 4 is the divisor.Operation Symbols for DivisionTo represent and describe division, we can use symbols and words.

Model Division of Whole Numbers As we did with multiplication, we will model division using counters. The operation of division helps us organize items into equal groups as we start with the number of items in the dividend and subtract the number in the divisor repeatedly. Doing the Manipulative Math Worksheets activity "Model Division of Whole Numbers" will help you develop a better understanding of dividing whole numbers. Model the division: 24÷8. Solution To find the quotient 24÷8, we want to know how many groups of 8 are in 24. Model the dividend. Start with 24 counters. The divisor tell us the number of counters we want in each group. Form groups of 8 counters. Count the number of groups. There are 3 groups. 24÷8=3 Model: 24÷6. Model: 42÷7.
Divide Whole NumbersWe said that addition and subtraction are inverse operations because one undoes the other. Similarly, division is the inverse operation of multiplication. We know 12÷4=3 because 3·4=12. Knowing all the multiplication number facts is very important when doing division. We check our answer to division by multiplying the quotient by the divisor to determine if it equals the dividend. In , we know 24÷8=3 is correct because 3·8=24. Divide.

Dividing any number (except 0) by itself produces a quotient of 1. Also, any number divided by 1 produces a quotient of the number. These two ideas are stated in the Division Properties of One.Division Properties of One Any number (except 0) divided by itself is one. a÷a=1 Any number divided by one is the same number. a÷1=a

Divide. Then check by multiplying: ⓐ 14÷14 ⓑ 271 ⓐ 1ⓑ 27 Divide. Then check by multiplying: ⓐ 161 ⓑ 14 ⓐ 16ⓑ 4 Suppose we have $0, and want to divide it among 3 people. How much would each person get? Each person would get $0. Zero divided by any number is 0. Now suppose that we want to divide $10 by 0. That means we would want to find a number that we multiply by 0 to get 10. This cannot happen because 0 times any number is 0. Division by zero is said to be undefined. These two ideas make up the Division Properties of Zero.Division Properties of Zero Zero divided by any number is 0. 0÷a=0 Dividing a number by zero is undefined. a÷0 undefined
Another way to explain why division by zero is undefined is to remember that division is really repeated subtraction. How many times can we take away 0 from 10? Because subtracting 0 will never change the total, we will never get an answer. So we cannot divide a number by 0. Divide. Check by multiplying: ⓐ 0÷3 ⓑ 10/0.

Then check by multiplying: ⓐ 0÷6 ⓑ 13/0 ⓐ 0 ⓑ undefined When the divisor or the dividend has more than one digit, it is usually easier to use the 412 notation. This process is called long division. Let’s work through the process by dividing 78 by 3. Divide the first digit of the dividend, 7, by the divisor, 3. The divisor 3 can go into 7 two times since 2×3=6. Write the 2 above the 7 in the quotient. Multiply the 2 in the quotient by 3 and write the product, 6, under the 7. Subtract that product from the first digit in the dividend. Subtract 7−6. Write the difference, 1, under the first digit in the dividend. Bring down the next digit of the dividend. Bring down the 8. Divide 18 by the divisor, 3. The divisor 3 goes into 18 six times. Write 6 in the quotient above the 8. Multiply the 6 in the quotient by the divisor and write the product, 18, under the dividend. Subtract 18 from 18.
We would repeat the process until there are no more digits in the dividend to bring down. In this problem, there are no more digits to bring down, so the division is finished. Check by multiplying the quotient times the divisor to get the dividend. Multiply 26×3 to make sure that product equals the dividend, 78. 216×3___78✓It does, so our answer is correct. Divide whole numbers.Divide the first digit of the dividend by the divisor. If the divisor is larger than the first digit of the dividend, divide the first two digits of the dividend by the divisor, and so on. Write the quotient above the dividend. Multiply the quotient by the divisor and write the product under the dividend. Subtract that product from the dividend. Bring down the next digit of the dividend. Repeat from Step 1 until there are no more digits in the dividend to bring down. Check by multiplying the quotient times the divisor. Divide 2,596÷4. Check by multiplying: Solution Let's rewrite the problem to set it up for long division. Divide the first digit of the dividend, 2, by the divisor, 4. Since 4 does not go into 2, we use the first two digits of the dividend and divide 25 by 4. The divisor 4 goes into 25 six times. We write the 6 in the quotient above the 5. Multiply the 6 in the quotient by the divisor 4 and write the product, 24, under the first two digits in the dividend. Subtract that product from the first two digits in the dividend. Subtract 25−24. Write the difference, 1, under the second digit in the dividend. Now bring down the 9 and repeat these steps. There are 4 fours in 19. Write the 4 over the 9. Multiply the 4 by 4 and subtract this product from 19. Bring down the 6 and repeat these steps. There are 9 fours in 36. Write the 9 over the 6. Multiply the 9 by 4 and subtract this product from 36. So 2,596÷4=649. Check by multiplying.
It equals the dividend, so our answer is correct.

Solution Let's rewrite the problem to set it up for long division. First we try to divide 9 into 7. Since that won't work, we try 9 into 72. There are 8 nines in 72. We write the 8 over the 2. Multiply the 8 by 9 and subtract this product from 72. Now bring down the 6 and repeat these steps. There are 0 nines in 6. Write the 0 over the 6. Multiply the 0 by 9 and subtract this product from 6. Now bring down the 3 and repeat these steps. There are 7 nines in 63. Write the 7 over the 3. Multiply the 7 by 9 and subtract this product from 63. Check by multiplying.
It equals the dividend, so our answer is correct.
Divide. Then check by multiplying: 4,928÷7. 704 Divide. Then check by multiplying: 5,663÷7. 809 So far all the division problems have worked out evenly. For example, if we had 24 cookies and wanted to make bags of 8 cookies, we would have 3 bags. But what if there were 28 cookies and we wanted to make bags of 8? Start with the 28 cookies as shown in .
Try to put the cookies in groups of eight as in .
There are 3 groups of eight cookies, and 4 cookies left over. We call the 4 cookies that are left over the remainder and show it by writing R4 next to the 3. (The R stands for remainder.) To check this division we multiply 3 times 8 to get 24, and then add the remainder of 4. Divide 1,439÷4. Check by multiplying. Solution Let's rewrite the problem to set it up for long division. First we try to divide 4 into 1. Since that won't work, we try 4 into 14. There are 3 fours in 14. We write the 3 over the 4. Multiply the 3 by 4 and subtract this product from 14. Now bring down the 3 and repeat these steps. There are 5 fours in 23. Write the 5 over the 3. Multiply the 5 by 4 and subtract this product from 23. Now bring down the 9 and repeat these steps. There are 9 fours in 39. Write the 9 over the 9. Multiply the 9 by 4 and subtract this product from 39. There are no more numbers to bring down, so we are done. The remainder is 3. Check by multiplying.
So 1,439÷4 is 359 with a remainder of 3. Our answer is correct.
Divide. Then check by multiplying: 3,812÷8. 476 with a remainder of 4 Divide. Then check by multiplying: 4,319÷8. 539 with a remainder of 7 Divide and then check by multiplying: 1,461÷13. Solution Let's rewrite the problem to set it up for long division. 131,461 First we try to divide 13 into 1. Since that won't work, we try 13 into 14. There is 1 thirteen in 14. We write the 1 over the 4. Multiply the 1 by 13 and subtract this product from 14. Now bring down the 6 and repeat these steps. There is 1 thirteen in 16. Write the 1 over the 6. Multiply the 1 by 13 and subtract this product from 16. Now bring down the 1 and repeat these steps. There are 2 thirteens in 31. Write the 2 over the 1. Multiply the 2 by 13 and subtract this product from 31. There are no more numbers to bring down, so we are done. The remainder is 5. 1,462÷13 is 112 with a remainder of 5. Check by multiplying.
Our answer is correct.
Divide. Then check by multiplying: 1,493÷13. 114 R11 Divide. Then check by multiplying: 1,461÷12. 121 R9 Divide and check by multiplying: 74,521÷241. Solution Let's rewrite the problem to set it up for long division. 24174,521 First we try to divide 241 into 7. Since that won’t work, we try 241 into 74. That still won’t work, so we try 241 into 745. Since 2 divides into 7 three times, we try 3. Since 3×241=723, we write the 3 over the 5 in 745. Note that 4 would be too large because 4×241=964, which is greater than 745. Multiply the 3 by 241 and subtract this product from 745. Now bring down the 2 and repeat these steps. 241 does not divide into 222. We write a 0 over the 2 as a placeholder and then continue. Now bring down the 1 and repeat these steps. Try 9. Since 9×241=2,169, we write the 9 over the 1. Multiply the 9 by 241 and subtract this product from 2,221. There are no more numbers to bring down, so we are finished. The remainder is 52. So 74,521÷241is 309 with a remainder of 52. Check by multiplying.
Sometimes it might not be obvious how many times the divisor goes into digits of the dividend. We will have to guess and check numbers to find the greatest number that goes into the digits without exceeding them.
