• 6 ÷ 3 = 2• 6 ÷ 60 = ? • Write 6 ones ÷ 60 as a three-step division sentence taking

out the ten.

• (6 ÷ 10) ÷ 6 = 0.6 ÷ 6 = 0.1

Divide by Multiples of 10• 0.32 ÷ 4• Solve this equation expressing the whole in hundredths.• 32 hundredths ÷ 4 = 8 hundredths

• 0.32 ÷ 4 = 0.08• 0.32 ÷ 40 = ? • Write 32 hundredths ÷ 40 as a three-step division

sentence taking out the ten.

• (0.32 ÷ 10) ÷ 4 = 0.032 ÷ 4 = 0.008

• 0.037 L = ______ mL• What is our conversion factor?• 1 L = 1,000 mL

• Using your conversion factor, solve to show how many mL are in 0.037 L.• 0.037 x 1,000 = 37 mL

• Complete the following conversions.

Unit Conversions

• 0.537 kg = ______ g• What is our conversion factor?• 1 kg = 1,000 g

• Using your conversion factor, solve to show how many g are in 0.537 kg.• 0.537 x 1,000 = 537 g

• 0.04 kg = ______ g• What is our conversion factor?• 1 kg = 1,000 g

• Using your conversion factor, solve to show how many g are in 0.04 kg.• 0.04 x 1,000 = 40 g

• Complete the following conversions.

Divide by Two-Digit Numbers• In your notebooks, solve two of the following

problems using the standard algorithm.

• 83.03 ÷ 23• 3.61

• 6.76 ÷ 13• 0.52

• 12.43 ÷ 11• 1.13

• 65.94 ÷ 21• 3.14

Application ProblemMichael has 567 pennies, Jorge has 464, and Jamie has 661. If the pennies are shared equally by the 3 boys and 33 of their classmates, how much money will each classmate receive? Express your final answer in dollars.

47 pennies = 0.47 of a dollar = $0.47

Each classmate will receive $0.47 dollars.

Concept Development – Problem 1• In a 77 kilometer relay race, each of 22 team members

run an equal distance. How many kilometers does each team member run?• Write a division equation to solve for the number of

kilometers run by each team member.• 77 ÷ 22

• Let’s solve this together using our multiples.

• This problem could also be solved using estimation to give us a number to start the standard algorithm.

Concept Development – Problem 2• A vial contains 14.7 mL of serum that is then split equally

into 21 tiny containers. How much serum is in each new container?

• In your journals, write a division equation that matches this story problem.• 14.7 ÷ 21• Before solving this problem, let’s reason about what

our quotient might be. Will there be more than 1 mL in each container or less than 1 mL? Justify your thinking.• It will have to be less than 1 mL because there are

more containers than mL of serum. To have 1 mL in each container, there would have to be 21 mL of serum and we only have about 15 mL of serum.

Now solve this problem in your journal.

0.7 ml of serum is in each small container.

Concept Development – Problem 2

• What is the quotient?• 0.7

• Is our actual quotient reasonable? Does the placement of the decimal make sense?• We said we should have less then 1 mL in each vial, and

we did.

Concept Development – Problem 3• The surface area of a rectangular piece of construction

paper is 140.25 square inches. If the paper’s length is 17 inches, what is the width?

• In your journals, write a division equation you would use to solve this problem.• 140.25 ÷ 17• Before solving this problem, let’s reason about what

our quotient might be. Tell me how to estimate 140.25 ÷ 17.• 140.25 ÷ 17 ≈ 140 ÷ 20 = 7
