Lesson 7: Use Sharing to Divide

Property.

Section 1

Model Division as Sharing into Equal Groups

Property

A division equation of the form $Total \div Number\ of\ Groups = ?$ , can be modeled by drawing the specified number of groups and then distributing the total amount equally among them. The number of items in each group is the solution.

Examples

Section 2

Model Division with Place Value Disks

Property

To divide a number using place value disks, distribute the disks for each place value, starting with the largest (tens), into a number of equal groups determined by the divisor.
