Learning objective

What this activity builds

Recognize one calculation in two presentations and record its quotient correctly in both answer positions.

Worked example

A horizontal equation shows 72 ÷ 8, beside a long-division bracket with 8 outside and 72 inside. What goes in both answer positions?

9 in each position.

Both presentations ask how many groups of eight are in 72. The fact 8 × 9 = 72 verifies the same quotient for both.

Teaching notes

Make the practice count

  • Point to the dividend in each notation before calculating.
  • Check operand positions separately from the answer when diagnosing an error.
