Area Model Division NC.5.NBT.6

Front

What is the area model in division?

Back

The area model is a visual representation used to illustrate how division works by breaking down numbers into smaller, more manageable parts.

Front

How do you find the quotient using the area model?

Back

To find the quotient, divide the area into sections that represent the divisor and then count how many times the divisor fits into the dividend.

Front

What is a divisor?

Back

A divisor is a number by which another number is divided.

Front

What is a dividend?

Back

A dividend is the number that is being divided by the divisor.

Front

What is the relationship between the dividend, divisor, and quotient?

Back

The relationship is expressed as: Dividend = Divisor × Quotient.

Front

How can you represent 420 using the area model?

Back

You can represent 420 by breaking it down into factors, such as 60 and 7, to show how it can be divided.

Front

What does it mean to divide 178 by 63 using the area model?

Back

It means to find out how many times 63 fits into 178, which can be visualized using the area model.

Front

What is the purpose of using the area model in division?

Back

The purpose is to help students visualize the division process and understand how numbers relate to each other.

Front

If the divisor is 63, what is the quotient when dividing 178?

Back

The quotient is approximately 2, since 63 fits into 178 two times.

Front

What is the first step in using the area model for division?

Back

The first step is to identify the dividend and the divisor.
