Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Sam organizes 55 quarters into 5 equal trays. The number in one tray is unknown. Which choice best matches?

AGrouping; 55 ÷ 5 = ?

BSharing; 55 ÷ 11 = ?

CGrouping; 55 ÷ 5 = 11

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Model: An array shows 18 items total. Each row has 2 items, and the number of rows is ?. Which choice describes the model and gives a matching equation?

ASharing; 18 ÷ 2 = ?

BGrouping; 18 ÷ 9 = ?

CGrouping; 18 ÷ 2 = ?

DGrouping; 18 ÷ ? = 2

Solution & Explanation:With 2 in each row, you find rows by grouping: 18 ÷ 2 = 9.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Model: There are 4 equal groups. Each group has 3 items. The total is ?. Which choice shows a matching division equation and the correct interpretation?

AGrouping; ? ÷ 4 = 3

BSharing; ? ÷ 4 = 3

CGrouping; 12 ÷ 4 = ?

DSharing; 12 ÷ 4 = 3

Solution & Explanation:If 4 groups have 3 each, then the total is 4 × 3 = 12. A matching division equation is ? ÷ 4 = 3.
