Lesson Overview

About this worksheet

This worksheet has 10 long division problems. Each problem sits in the division bracket above a light grid, one square per digit, so every product and difference stays in its place-value column. Problems with a 2-digit divisor have a scratch box beside the grid for trying multiples.

The reference box at the top of page 1 explains the method. The last page of problems ends with one word problem that needs long division. Page 3 is the answer key, and it shows every problem solved step by step: the quotient, each product and difference, and every digit brought down, so a student can find the exact step where an answer went wrong.

It comes in two editions: a full-color PDF and a low-ink black-and-white PDF for everyday copying.

How to Use This Lesson

Read the reference box as a class.

Solve each problem in the bracket, one digit of the quotient at a time.

Keep each digit in its grid square as you multiply, subtract and bring down.

Check the answers against the step-by-step key on page 3.
