Division Worksheets

Division facts, with or without remainders · Grades 2–3

Short division problems written on one line, such as 12 ÷ 3 = □, with dividends within 20, 50 or 100 and divisors from 2 to 10, so every answer is a times-table fact read backwards. Turn on remainders for problems like 14 ÷ 4 = 3 r 2, where each line leaves a box for the quotient and one for what is left over. The sign prints as ÷ or as a colon, following the convention of each language.

Skills: division facts, remainders, inverse of multiplication. Format: printable, randomized on every load.

Frequently asked questions
When should children start division facts?
Division facts usually follow the times tables in grades 2 and 3. A child who knows that 3 × 4 = 12 already knows 12 ÷ 3 and 12 ÷ 4, so start once the matching tables are recalled rather than counted, and choose within 20 for the first sheets.
How is this different from long division?
These problems take one step, from memory or a quick count, and are written on a single line. Long division breaks a large number into several steps like these, so fluent division facts are what make the long division sheet manageable.
How should remainders be introduced?
Turn remainders on once exact division is quick. Most problems then leave something over, but a few still divide exactly and are answered with r 0, so a child has to check that the remainder is smaller than the divisor instead of assuming there is one.
