Long Division — Answer Key
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. A factory packs 1,368 bottles into boxes of 6. There are 228 boxes.
1,368 ÷ 6 = 228. 6 × 228 = 1,368.
2. 945 ÷ 5 = 189
5 × 189 = 945. Divide: 9÷5=1 R4; 44÷5=8 R4; 45÷5=9. Quotient = 189.
3. A farmer plants 2,352 seeds in 7 equal rows. Each row has 336 seeds.
2,352 ÷ 7 = 336. 7 × 336 = 2,352.
4. 1,728 ÷ 8 = 216
8 × 216 = 1,728. Divide: 17÷8=2 R1; 12÷8=1 R4; 48÷8=6. Quotient = 216.
5. A library shelves 564 books equally on 4 carts. Each cart holds 141 books.
564 ÷ 4 = 141. 4 × 141 = 564.
6. 3,672 ÷ 9 = 408
9 × 408 = 3,672. Divide: 36÷9=4; 7÷9=0 (bring down); 72÷9=8. Quotient = 408.
7. A road crew paints lines on a 2,415-meter stretch in sections of 5 meters. They paint 483 sections.
2,415 ÷ 5 = 483. 5 × 483 = 2,415.
8. 1,176 ÷ 3 = 392
3 × 392 = 1,176. Divide: 11÷3=3 R2; 27÷3=9; 6÷3=2. Quotient = 392.
9. There are 2,856 students seated in 6 equal sections. Each section has 476 students.
2,856 ÷ 6 = 476. 6 × 476 = 2,856.
