TIMS Task

This DPP item provides practice using division facts using a problem-solving context.

Pictures will vary, but the important idea here is that division is used to sort and organize larger numbers into smaller, even groups of numbers.

  1. $20 in all ÷ $4 to each child = 5 children
  2. 40 tokens ÷ 10 tokens per package = 4 packages

P. Division Stories

The following two problems can be solved using division.

  1. Mrs. Randall gave each of her children $4 to spend on games at the neighborhood carnival. If Mrs. Randall gave out $20 in all, how many children does she have? Draw a picture to show this problem.
  2. One package of bus tokens contains 10 tokens. Keenya's mother needs 40 tokens to get to and from work for one month. How many packages does Keenya's mother need? Draw a picture to show this problem.
