In this Grade 5 Pengi Math lesson from Chapter 2, students learn how to divide multi-digit numbers by decomposing dividends into friendly numbers and applying the partial quotients strategy. They practice breaking apart division problems into manageable steps and combining partial quotients to find the final result. This lesson builds a foundational understanding of place value concepts as applied to multi-digit division using area models.
Section 1
Solve Division Using an Area Model
To solve a division problem using an area model, the dividend is partitioned into a sum of smaller, convenient numbers. The quotient is the sum of the partial quotients found by dividing each part of the dividend by the divisor.
Section 2
Divide Whole Numbers Using Partial Quotients
Partial quotients is a method for solving division problems by repeatedly subtracting "friendly" multiples of the divisor from the dividend.
The final quotient is the sum of all the partial quotients.
