Lesson 8: Division with Remainders
Overview Use the calculator to divide numbers with remainders.
Teacher Materials “Two Methods for Writing Division with Remainders”,
“Division with Remainders”, “Repetitive Division with
Remainders”, and “Calculating the Remainder” ,
transparencies.
Student Materials Pencil, Calculator, and “Calculator Connections V”
worksheet.
Keys Introduced ÷ .
Teaching Notes Display the transparencies. Ask the students to follow
along with you as you discuss the exercise.
Inform the students how the calculator displays the
“remainder” as digits to the right of the decimal point.
Use the “Calculating the Remainder” transparency to
show how to determine the remainder. To find the
remainder, multiply the number to the left of the
decimal point by the divisor. Then subtract the result
from the dividend to get the remainder.
The “Calculator Connections V” worksheet provides
additional practice. Ask students to solve each
division problem with the calculator and connect the
box with the correct answer by drawing a line.
