This document provides guidance for 4th grade students on dividing multi-digit numbers by one-digit numbers. It explains the steps of long division using a "family" analogy. Students will learn to divide 3 or 4 digit numbers with and without remainders by breaking the number into equal groups. Key terms are defined, like dividend, quotient, divisor, and remainder. The steps of long division are demonstrated through examples, such as putting the first digit of the quotient above the divisible digit and multiplying/subtracting until there is no number left or a remainder.

2.  N.FL.04.11 Divide numbers up to four-
digits by one-digit numbers and by 10
 N.MR.04.13 Use the relationship between
multiplication and division to simplify
computations and check results.

3.  4th grade students will divide a three or
four digit number by a one digit number
with and without remainders.
 Students will use the members of the
family to relate, understand, and
complete the steps of a division
problem.
