Steps:
1. Draw a large rectangle for the area
model.
2. Write the divisor and a multiplication
sign on the left side of the rectangle.
Record the dividend inside the area
model
3. Multiply the divisor by a number that
gets closest to the value of the dividend
without going over. (It may be helpful
to use multiples of 10s, 100s, or 1000s.)
4. Subtract that number from the
dividend.
5. Take the difference and create a new
column.
6. Repeat steps 3, 4, and 5.
7. Add the partial quotients to find the
answer (quotient).
Area model:
936 ÷ 6 =
? hundreds + ? tens + ? ones
6
100 + 50 + 6 = 156
6 936 336 36
- 600 - 300 - 36
336 36 0
18 ÷ 3 = 6
dividend ÷ divisor = quotient
