Missing Number Mystery: Divide With Strip Models

Sharpen your sleuthing skills in this third- and fourth-grade division worksheet! Students are presented with a strip model that contains the dividend, but no quotient. Using the dividend and the number of equal groups in the model, learners will fill in the blank equation and find the missing numbers.

Strip models are a great way for students to recognize how a number can be partitioned into equal groups. Since strip models can also be used for multiplication, using the same strategy for division can help students see the relationship between the two operations. This worksheet will help build learners’ division skills with facts within 100, giving them a strong foundation for learning the standard algorithm and working with larger numbers.
