problem_activity: Problem 1
a.   Shani calculated
$$81\div3$$
using an area model by finding the length of a rectangle whose area is 81 square units and width is 3 units.
[IMG]
The value being divided has 8 tens. The area model has only 6 tens in the leftmost region. Why?
Where did the 21 ones come from in the area model?
b.   Albie calculated
$$81\div3$$
using a method that was different from Shani’s.
[IMG]
Albie subtracted 60 from 81. What does the 60 represent?
Albie wrote 7 above the 20, and then subtracted 21 from 21. How is the 21 related to the 7?
What do the numbers 20 and 7 represent?
c.   Kimiko has a method of calculating quotients that is different from Shani’s method and Albie’s method. Here is how she found the quotient
$$81\div3$$
.
[IMG]
How is Kimiko’s method similar to and different from Shani’s method and Albie’s method?
Kimiko subtracted
$$3\times2$$
, then
$$3\times7$$
. Earlier, Albie subtracted
$$3\times20$$
, then
$$3\times7$$
. Why did they have the same quotient?
Why do you think Kimiko wrote 1 next to the remainder of 2 rather than adding 1 and 2 to get 3?
Problem 2
Estimate each quotient, then solve using any method. Then assess the reasonableness of your answer.
a.
$$97 \div2$$
b.
$$1,216\div4$$
c.
$$4,309\div7$$
