About this worksheet
Each worksheet has 20 problems dividing a number by 10, 100 or 1,000.
This worksheet gives children practice dividing whole numbers by 10, 100 and 1,000 in their heads. Every dividend is built so the answer comes out whole and stays inside a fourth grader's number range, and the divisors are written as ordinary numbers rather than with exponents, which are taught later. Keeping to division alone means the operation has to be read rather than guessed from whether the answer looks smaller. Sheets can be customized, turned into flash cards, or assigned for online learning.
Student objectives
- Divide a whole number by 10, 100 or 1,000 without writing out the computation.
- Explain that dividing by 10 shifts every digit one place to the right.
- Predict how many zeros the quotient will have before working it out.
Everyday practice
- Split a total evenly among 100 people and say what each one gets.
- Figure out how many meters are in a number of centimeters.
- Say what a number becomes when it is divided by 10, then by 10 again.
