1 Division methods

2 Division Division is mainly taught in two ways - short division and chunking. An example of short division is 2645 ÷ 5 _______________ 5 ) First 5 goes into 2 zero times with 2 remainders so write 0 above the 2 and carry 2 across to the next number (which becomes 26 in this case) __0_____________ 5 ) 5 goes into 26 five times with 1 left over _0_ 5__________ 5 ) Then repeat the process __0__5__2__9___ 5 )

3 Chunking This a popular method taught in many primary schools. It involves taking easy multiples out of a number. E.g ÷ 1 5. 1 5 ) (100 x 15) (20 x 15) 3 0 (2 x 15) 0 0 To find the answer, the numbers which have been multiplied by 15 are added together. = 322
