296 ÷ 4 = _____
We need to break down 296 into parts that are easily divisible by 4. STEP 1: Look at your largest place value 296 ÷ 4 = _____ I look at my first digit. Can I make a group of 4 out of 2? No. So then I “add” on my second digit. STEP 2: Look at the first and second largest place values together 296 ÷ 4 = _____ I look at my first and second digit. Can I make a group of 4 out of 29? Yes! STEP 3: Find the closest multiple without going over. 296 ÷ 4 = _____ So now we look for a multiple of 4 that’s close to 29 without going over. Step counting from 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28. 28 is the closest multiple; however the value of 28 is 280. So 280 is our first part of 296 that we’ll use. STEP 4: Divide 296 ÷ 4 = _____ 280 ÷ 4 = 70 STEP 5: Subtract 296 ÷ 4 = _____ 280 ÷ 4 = 70 Now that we know 280 is easily divisible by 4, we need to find out what’s leftover to divide, so we subtract 280 from 296. 2 9 6 - 2 8 0 1 6 Our last part of 296 to divide is 16. STEP 6: Divide again. 296 ÷ 4 = _____ 280 ÷ 4 = 70 16 ÷ 4 = 4 STEP 7: Add the quotients. 296 ÷ 4 = _____ 280 ÷ 4 = 70 16 ÷ 4 = 4 Now we’re going to add 70 + 4 = 74 So 296 ÷ 4 = 74 Practice Game: Baseball (2 Players)
