Question 1
What is 47 ÷ 5?
Correct answer: C
5 × 9 = 45 and 47 - 45 = 2, so the answer is 9 R2. 8 R7 is not finished, because a remainder must be less than 5.
-
Question 2
What is 138 ÷ 4?
Correct answer: A
4 × 34 = 136 and 138 - 136 = 2, so 138 ÷ 4 = 34 R2. 33 R6 cannot be right, because 6 is more than the divisor 4.

Question 3
29 students are going on a trip. Each car can carry 4 students. How many cars are needed to carry all the students?
Correct answer: B
29 ÷ 4 = 7 R1. Seven cars carry 28 students, and 1 student still needs a ride, so 8 cars are needed. Answering 7 leaves a student behind.

Question 4
Jen baked 50 cookies. She puts 6 cookies in each bag. How many bags can she fill completely?
Correct answer: D
50 ÷ 6 = 8 R2, so she fills 8 bags and has 2 cookies left over. A 9th bag would have only 2 cookies, so it is not full.

Question 5
75 stickers are shared equally among 6 friends. Each friend gets as many as possible. How many stickers are left over?
Correct answer: B
6 × 12 = 72 and 75 - 72 = 3, so 3 stickers are left over. 12 is how many each friend gets, not the leftover.
-
Question 6
What is 512 ÷ 8?
Correct answer: C
8 × 60 = 480 and 8 × 4 = 32, and 480 + 32 = 512, so 512 ÷ 8 = 64. 604 puts a 0 in the tens place by mistake.
-
Question 7
What is 1,000 ÷ 7?
Correct answer: A
7 × 142 = 994, and 1,000 - 994 = 6, so the answer is 142 R6. 14 R2 drops a digit from the quotient.
-
Question 8
Ravi found that 93 ÷ 4 = 23 R1. Which expression can he use to check his answer?
Correct answer: D
Multiply the quotient by the divisor and add the remainder: 4 × 23 + 1 = 92 + 1 = 93. 4 × 23 - 1 equals 91, so it does not check the answer.
-
Question 9
A craft club has 245 beads. Each necklace uses 9 beads. How many complete necklaces can the club make?
Correct answer: A
245 ÷ 9 = 27 R2. The 2 leftover beads are not enough for another necklace, so the answer is 27. 2 is the remainder.
-
Question 10
A farm collects 100 eggs. Each carton holds 6 eggs. How many cartons are needed to hold all the eggs?
Correct answer: D
100 ÷ 6 = 16 R4. Sixteen full cartons hold 96 eggs, and the other 4 eggs need one more carton, so 17 cartons are needed.
