CBSE Class 4 Maths Division Worksheet Set 04

Q.1. Divide and write the quotient and remainder:
Answer:
1. \(587 \div 10\):
Quotient = 58, Remainder = 7
2. \(9542 \div 10\):
Quotient = 954, Remainder = 2
3. \(740 \div 20\):
Quotient = 37, Remainder = 0
4. \(890 \div 50\):
Quotient = 17, Remainder = 40
In simple words: When dividing by 10, the last digit is the remainder and the remaining digits form the quotient. For other numbers, standard long division is used.

Exam Tip: When dividing by powers of 10 like 10, 100, etc., you can easily find the quotient and remainder by looking at the last digits corresponding to the number of zeros.

Q.2 Divide the following:
a. \(184 \div 12\)
Answer:
Step 1: Divide 18 by 12. \(12 \times 1 = 12\)
Step 2: Subtract 12 from 18 to get 6, and bring down 4 to make 64.
Step 3: Divide 64 by 12. \(12 \times 5 = 60\)
Step 4: Subtract 60 from 64 to get the remainder 4.
\(Q = 15, R = 4\)
In simple words: 184 divided by 12 gives 15 with a remainder of 4.

Exam Tip: Always verify your division using the division algorithm: \(\text{Dividend} = (\text{Quotient} \times \text{Divisor}) + \text{Remainder}\).

Q.2. b. \(784 \div 15\)
Answer:
Step 1: Divide 78 by 15. \(15 \times 5 = 75\)
Step 2: Subtract 75 from 78 to get 3, and bring down 4 to make 34.
Step 3: Divide 34 by 15. \(15 \times 2 = 30\)
Step 4: Subtract 30 from 34 to get the remainder 4.
\(Q = 52, R = 4\)
In simple words: 784 divided by 15 gives 52 with a remainder of 4.

Exam Tip: Check your multiplication table of 15 carefully to avoid calculation errors.

Q.2. c. \(2480 \div 25\)
Answer:
Step 1: Divide 248 by 25. \(25 \times 9 = 225\)
Step 2: Subtract 225 from 248 to get 23, and bring down 0 to make 230.
Step 3: Divide 230 by 25. \(25 \times 9 = 225\)
Step 4: Subtract 225 from 230 to get the remainder 5.
\(Q = 99, R = 5\)
In simple words: 2480 divided by 25 gives 99 with a remainder of 5.

Exam Tip: Knowing multiples of 25 (25, 50, 75, 100) makes division by 25 much faster.

Q.2. d. \(3967 \div 19\)
Answer:
Step 1: Divide 39 by 19. \(19 \times 2 = 38\)
Step 2: Subtract 38 from 39 to get 1, and bring down 6 to make 16.
Step 3: Since 16 is less than 19, put 0 in the quotient and bring down 7 to make 167.
Step 4: Divide 167 by 19. \(19 \times 8 = 152\)
Step 5: Subtract 152 from 167 to get the remainder 15.
\(Q = 208, R = 15\)
In simple words: 3967 divided by 19 gives 208 with a remainder of 15.

Exam Tip: Be careful with zero placement in the quotient when a brought-down digit forms a number smaller than the divisor.
