Grade 5 - The Number System

Standard 5.NS.1.6 - Solve division word problems with remainders.

Included Skills:

Students will be expected to demonstrate, with and without concrete materials, an understanding of division (three-digit by one-digit), and interpret remainders to solve problems.
• Performance Indicators
- N06.01 Model the division of two given numbers, using concrete or visual representations, and record the process symbolically.
- N06.02 Explain that the interpretation of a remainder depends on the context.
• Ignore the remainder (e.g., making teams of four from 22 people [five teams, but two people are left over]).
• Round the quotient up (e.g., the number of five-passenger cars required to transport 13 people).
• Express remainders as fractions (e.g., five apples shared by two people).
• Express remainders as decimals (e.g., measurement and money).
- N06.03 Solve a given division problem in context, using personal strategies, and record the process.
- N06.04 Create and solve division story problems, and record the process symbolically.
- N06.05 Determine the quotient of two given numbers using a personal strategy and record the process symbolically.
