Questions about Division Word Problems
What does the Division Word Problems worksheet cover?
It practises division with a remainder to interpret — 6 questions for Grade 4, all on Common Core 4.NBT.B.6: Divide larger numbers, including with remainders. The instruction to pupils is “Read carefully, then work out the answer”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.NBT.B.6 — 4.NBT.B.6, in the Number & Operations in Base Ten domain for Grade 4. The published standard reads: “Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit divisors.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
What age or grade is this worksheet for?

Does Division Word Problems come with an answer key?
Yes. All 6 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.

25 — one per pupil, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
