3rd Grade Division Facts Multiple Choice Worksheet: Tick the Right Answer

Most wrong boxes are not random. In e, 68 ÷ 2 = 34, and the box 43 swaps the two digits. In d, 2 ÷ 2 = 1, but some children tick 0, thinking that a number minus itself is the same as a number divided by itself.

Items f and l make a neat pair: 50 ÷ 5 = 10 and 50 ÷ 10 = 5. Because the divisor and the quotient trade places, both facts belong to the same fact family. Ask your child to spot this pair once the page is done.

Encourage your child to cover the four boxes, work out the answer first and only then tick, because this habit turns guessing into mental math. Items e and g, 68 ÷ 2 and 26 ÷ 2, go past the basic facts, since their answers are 34 and 13.

For these, halving the tens and the ones separately works well. For example, half of 60 is 30 and half of 8 is 4, so 68 ÷ 2 = 34. The rest of the page stays within the times tables.

Swap roles. Your child writes a division fact for you, with four choices that include one tempting wrong answer. Then talk about why that wrong answer looks right. Then check the twelve ticks against the answer key on page two.
