How to make a division color by number
- Pick the facts. Tap a quick pick, or tick the numbers to divide by under "Divide by". "Each table goes up to" sets the biggest answer, 10 or 12.
- Pick a picture. Choose from 31 pictures. The picture shows up as kids color.
- Print or share. Print the worksheet with its answer key, or share a link for coloring online.
Which level fits your class?
| Level | Example | Usually used in |
|---|---|---|
| ÷ 2, 5 and 10 | 35 ÷ 5 = 7 | 3rd grade |
| Facts to 100 ÷ 10 | 56 ÷ 7 = 8 | 3rd grade |
| Facts to 144 ÷ 12 | 132 ÷ 11 = 12 | 3rd and 4th grade |
| 2-digit ÷ 1-digit | 84 ÷ 4 = 21 | 4th grade |
| 3-digit ÷ 1-digit | 252 ÷ 7 = 36 | 4th and 5th grade |
The Common Core standards ask 3rd graders to multiply and divide within 100 fluently (3.OA.C.7), and 4th graders to find quotients with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit divisors (4.NBT.B.6).
Every problem divides evenly. There are no remainders, so each answer is a whole number that can go in the color key.
Tips for teaching with it
- Use fact families. If kids know 7 × 8 = 56, they know 56 ÷ 7 = 8. Pair this sheet with a multiplication color by number on the same tables.
- One divisor at a time. Tick only 6 under "Divide by" for a sheet of 6s. It shows quickly who has those facts down.
- Long division practice. The 2-digit and 3-digit levels give kids a reason to finish each problem, and the key tells them right away if an answer is off.
- Class sets. Print up to 30 versions with the answer keys labeled by version.
