This unit develops pupils' understanding of multiplication and division to include remainders. They will explain how situations are represented by division equations including sharing and grouping structures. Pupils will also explain how the remainder relates to the divisor in an equation and what to do with the remainder in the context of different problems. This understanding will be developed when they learn more formal division strategies.

Prior knowledge requirements

  • Understand division as sharing and grouping
  • Recall multiplication and division facts
  • Recognise when a number cannot be divided exactly
