4th grade long division with remainders worksheets

Tap to see another sample sheet. The picture follows the difficulty you pick.

Long division with one-digit divisors where every problem leaves a remainder. Fourth graders practise the full cycle and then the last step, naming what is left over, with the check that a remainder must be smaller than the divisor.

Free printable PDF worksheet, aligned to Common Core 4.NBT.B.6.

Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.


The kind of problems you'll get

Divide. Write the quotient above the bar. Use R for any remainder.

  1. 116 = 5 × + 0 ≤ < 5

    Answer: 23

  2. 554 = 5 × + 0 ≤ < 5

    Answer: 110

  3. 509 = 3 × + 0 ≤ < 3

    Answer: 169

Every print pulls a fresh set of problems at this level, so a make-up test or a second sibling never gets the same sheet.

What's on a 4th grade sheet

The sample sheet above has 9 problems. Its answers run from 23 to 388.

Every version prints on US Letter or A4, with its answer key after the problems.

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.

Common questions about 4th grade long division with remainders

Does every problem have a remainder?
Yes. The no-remainders page is the companion for exact quotients.
How should the remainder be written?
As 'r' and the number, for example 124 r5. The answer key uses the same form.
