Understanding Partitive Division with Base 10 Blocks

The video tutorial explains partitive division using base 10 blocks. It demonstrates dividing 525 by 3 by modeling the number with base 10 blocks, dividing flats, exchanging them for rods, and then sharing rods and units equally among three groups. The process concludes with each group having 175, showing that 525 divided by 3 equals 175.

What is the main concept being demonstrated in this video?

• Subtraction using base 10 blocks

• Partitive division using base 10 blocks

• Multiplication using base 10 blocks

• Addition using base 10 blocks

How is the number 525 represented using base 10 blocks?

• 5 flats, 2 rods, 2 units

• 2 flats, 5 rods, 5 units

• 5 flats, 5 rods, 2 units

• 5 flats, 2 rods, 5 units

What is the first step in dividing the flats among the groups?

• Place one flat in each group

• Exchange flats for units

• Exchange flats for rods

• Place two flats in each group

Why do we need to exchange flats for rods?

• Because rods are more valuable

• Because flats cannot be shared equally among three groups

• Because rods are easier to handle

• Because flats are too large

How many rods can be shared with each group after exchanging flats?

• 3 rods

• 7 rods

• 5 rods

• 10 rods

What is the next step after sharing rods among the groups?

• Add more rods to each group

• Exchange remaining rods for flats

• Remove rods from each group

• Exchange remaining rods for units

How many units are shared with each group after exchanging rods?

• 5 units

• 3 units

• 7 units

• 10 units

What is the final result of dividing 525 by 3 using base 10 blocks?

• 150

• 200

• 125

• 175

What does each group contain at the end of the division process?

• 1 flat, 7 rods, 5 units

• 2 flats, 5 rods, 5 units

• 1 flat, 5 rods, 7 units

• 2 flats, 7 rods, 5 units
