Division and fractions Maths Worksheets For Year 4 (age 8-9)
Children should be able to divide numbers up to 1000 by 10 or 100 (whole number answers) and understand the effect of this. Written methods of division of 2-digits by 1-digit are developed, including writing remainders as fractions. Calculators are also used to help with understanding division.
Understanding simple equivalent fractions, at first by using diagrams, is very important this year. Children will also be expected to order fractions and mixed numbers on a number line and find pairs of fractions which total one.
Divide by 10, 100 and 1000
Dividing a number by ten moves it once place to the right. Divide by 100 moves it two places to the right.
