Essential Question: How can we use division by a one-digit number to fairly share items among a group and solve real-world problems efficiently?

Focus Standards

Operations and Algebraic Thinking: Students will extend understanding of multiplication and division and apply operational properties to solve problems involving variables.

• 4.A.1.c Divide up to a four-digit whole number by a one-digit divisor with and without a remainder using strategies based on place value. 

• 4.A.1.e Create a simple algebraic expression or equation using a variable for an unknown number to represent an authentic mathematical situation (e.g., 3 + n = 15, 81 ÷ n = 9).

• 4.A.1.f Solve one- and two-step authentic problems using the four operations including interpreting remainders and the use of a letter to represent the unknown quantity.
