Area Model Division for 4th Graders

The video tutorial demonstrates how to solve a multi-digit division problem, specifically 966 divided by 7, using an area model. The process involves dividing the number into hundreds, tens, and ones, and calculating each section separately. The tutorial explains how to find the closest multiples of 7 for each section without exceeding the total, and then combines the results to find the final quotient of 138.

What is the first step in solving a multi-digit division problem using an area model?

• Identify the dividend and divisor

• Divide the model into sections based on place value

• Multiply the divisor by the highest possible number

• Subtract the largest product from the dividend

How many sections did the area model have?

• Four

• Five

• Three

• Two

What does the area model help visualize in a division problem?

• The division into equal groups

• The multiplication facts

• The subtraction process

• The addition of remainders

What was the product of 7 times 100 in the hundreds place?

• 600

• 700

• 800

• 900

After subtracting 700 from 966, what area was left to be divided?

• 266

• 296

• 276

• 286

What was the closest product to 266 using multiples of 7 in the tens place?

• 350

• 140

• 210

• 280

How much area was left after subtracting the product in the tens place?

• 66

• 76

• 56

• 46

What multiple of 7 equals 56?

• 9

• 6

• 7

• 8

What was the final answer to 966 divided by 7?

• 136

• 137

• 139

• 138

Why was there no remainder in the division problem?

• Because the divisor was larger than the dividend

• Because a mistake was made in calculation

• Because the area model was incorrect

• Because 966 is a multiple of 7
