Partial Quotients
- 1Take out 100 groups of 6: 6 × 100 = 600. 846 − 600 = 246 left.
- 2Take out 40 groups of 6: 6 × 40 = 240. 246 − 240 = 6 left.
- 3Take out 1 group of 6: 6 × 1 = 6. Nothing is left.
- 4100 + 40 + 1 = 141

Students divide a whole number with up to four digits by a one-digit number using a method they can use reliably, such as partial quotients, place value models, or the relationship between multiplication and division.
Remainders are written as a fraction of the divisor. For example, 25 ÷ 4 is 6 with a remainder of 1, which is 614.
Official benchmarkDivide a whole number up to four digits by a one-digit whole number with procedural reliability. Represent remainders as fractional parts of the divisor.
On the FAST test: part of the Grade 4 reporting category Number Sense and Operations with Whole Numbers, which is about 31–37% of the test.
Worked Example 1
Worked Example 2
If the remainder is 6 or more, another group of 6 fits. 6 × 8 = 48, so 50 ÷ 6 = 8 R2, or 826.
The remainder is a fraction of the divisor: 25 ÷ 4 = 614.
Check division with multiplication: quotient × divisor + remainder should equal the number you started with.
