The ideas in this division lesson are taken from Division 1 ebook. Only a few examples of each problem type are shown; you should make more problems of each kind for the student.


Divisibility
Free lesson plan from HomeschoolMath.net

If there is no remainder, we say division is exact. For example,

18 ÷ 9 = 2, remainder is 0.

We also say that
18 is divisible by 9.

33 ÷ 11 = 3, R 0.

33 is divisible by 11.

If there is a remainder, we say division is not exact. For example,

15 ÷ 4 = 3, remainder 3.

We also say that
15 is NOT divisible by 4.

17 ÷ 7 = 2, R 3.

17 is not divisible by 7.

If a number is divisible by another number, we can make a multiplication sentence from the division sentence:

18 ÷ 9 = 2   and   2 × 9 = 18. 

If division is not exact (there is a remainder), then we cannot make
a multiplication sentence.

19 ÷ 9 = 2, R 1   but    2 × 9 19. 


Example problems

1.  Follow the example and find if the following numbers are divisible by given numbers.

Is 15 divisible by 5?

Yes, because  15 ÷ 5 = 3, R 0.

Is 22 divisible by 2?

Yes/no, because 

Is 17 divisible by 5?

No, because there is a remainder: 
17 ÷ 5 = 3, R 2 

Is 14 divisible by 3?

Yes/no, because
