Now that children are familiar with long division, it's time to teach how to apply that to numbers where the dividend causes a remainder!

This Year 6 Long Division with Remainders Reasoning and Problem Solving worksheet will consolidate learning about how to divide numbers using long division that mean there is a remainder. Across three questions, each with two variations, children will calculate who has completed a real-life problem using division correctly, investigate whether an answer to a real-life problem is correct and identify possible answers to a long division. Key facts are given each time to support, and answers are provided to make marking as easy as possible!

A varied fluency resource and discussion problem are also available for this small step.
