Divide Multi-Digit Numbers Using Area Models

Use area models to divide two-, three-, and four-digit numbers in this helpful worksheet! To solve each problem, students must use the pre-filled area model to find partial quotients. Learners will then add each partial quotient to find their final answer. The first problem has been completed as a guide.

This worksheet is designed to help fourth and fifth graders break down division problems into manageable chunks using place value. Using an area model can allow students to easily visualize the process and recognize how each dividend is decomposed. This strategy can help prepare students for standard partial quotient division, without the help of models.
