4.NBT.B.6

**4.NBT.B.6**: Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.

What you'll learn

Divide a whole number of up to four digits by a one-digit divisor to find a quotient and remainder, using strategies based on place value
Apply the partial quotients method to divide by subtracting successive multiples of the divisor
Use the relationship between multiplication and division to find or verify quotients -- reasoning "what times the divisor gives me this amount?"
Represent a division problem using a rectangular area model in which the divisor is one dimension and the quotient is built place by place as the other dimension
Explain the meaning of a remainder in a division problem and express the result using R notation
Illustrate and explain a division calculation using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models -- not just produce a numeric answer
