10 questions
5th - 5th Grade
Mathematics
This free printable Grade 5 mathematics worksheet helps students divide whole numbers by two-digit divisors using 10 multiple-choice questions. Students solve problems such as 117 ÷ 13, 2,828 ÷ 14, and 442 ÷ 17, identify the dividend and divisor, name the quotient, and interpret a division problem with a remainder. The worksheet also connects computation to practical situations. Students determine how many vans are needed when groups are not evenly divisible, calculate equal daily reading amounts, and select a quotient with a remainder, such as 289 ÷ 14 = 20 R 9. It is useful for guided practice, independent review, or a quick formative assessment of two-digit-divisor division. The free printable worksheet includes a complete answer key for efficient checking.

This Grade 5 worksheet uses 10 multiple-choice questions to practise dividing whole numbers by two-digit divisors, including exact quotients and quotients with remainders. Students also identify the dividend, divisor, and quotient and apply division to van, reading, and equal-sharing word problems, building both calculation accuracy and interpretation skills.
Begin by modeling the roles of the dividend, divisor, quotient, and remainder with an equation such as 1608 ÷ 24 = 67. Then solve one exact-division item and one remainder item, asking students to explain why 289 ÷ 14 is written as 20 R 9. Use the van problem to discuss how a remainder can affect the number of groups needed in a real situation before students complete the multiple-choice set independently.
Watch for students confusing the dividend and divisor in 1608 ÷ 24 = 67, or selecting “dividend” and “divisor” based on position without interpreting their roles. Students may also choose a close quotient without checking multiplication, overlook the remainder in 289 ÷ 14, or report 27 vans for 246 students even though the remaining students require another van. In the reading problem, check that students divide 650 pages by 25 days rather than multiply.
You can assign this worksheet as a printable PDF or as a digital quiz on Wayground. It includes a complete answer key, and printable submissions can be graded by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app. The PDF option also supports schools that want to reduce screen time while keeping the same two-digit-divisor practice.
Use the worksheet’s Advanced Settings to adjust font spacing or choose a larger font size so the division equations, answer choices, and word problems are easier to read. You can also enable a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language, which may help students access the division vocabulary and real-world scenarios.
