How to teach this
After the last bring-down, the last subtraction is the remainder; say it as 'r5' and write it that way. The check to insist on: remainder smaller than divisor. Have your child multiply the quotient by the divisor and add the remainder to get the dividend back on two or three problems.
Watch for: Kids write a remainder bigger than the divisor (124 r7 when dividing by 6). If the remainder is not smaller than the divisor, the quotient digit is too small. Kids drop the remainder and write just the quotient. On this page every problem has one; the answer is not finished without it.
