Mastering Division: Dividing by 10 and Dividing by 100

Learning Objective

At the end of the lesson, you will be able to understand and perform division by 10 and division by 100.

What do you already know about division and place value?

Understanding Place Value

Place value is the value of a digit based on its position in a number. The positions to the left of the decimal point represent powers of 10.

Dividing by 10

When dividing a whole number by 10, all digits move one place to the right. The decimal point also moves one place to the left.

Interactive Exercise: Dividing by 10

Let's practice dividing numbers by 10 using interactive exercises and real-life examples.

Dividing by 100

When dividing a whole number by 100, all digits move two places to the right. The decimal point also moves two places to the left.

Interactive Exercise: Dividing by 100

Let's practice dividing numbers by 100 using interactive exercises and real-life scenarios.

Applying the Concept

Now that we understand division by 10 and 100, let's apply this knowledge to solve word problems and practical situations.

Review and Recap

Today, we learned how to divide numbers by 10 and 100. Remember to consider place value and the movement of the decimal point.

Write down 3 things you learned in this lesson.

Have students enter three things they learned in this lesson. With this they can indicate their own learning efficiency of this lesson.

Write down 2 things you want to know more about.

Here, students enter two things they would like to know more about. This not only increases involvement, but also gives them more ownership.

Ask 1 question about something you haven't quite understood yet.

The students indicate here (in question form) with which part of the material they still have difficulty. For the teacher, this not only provides insight into the extent to which the students understand/master the material, but also a good starting point for the next lesson.
