Mini Word Problems

This worksheet introduces short word problems requiring students to write a division sentence and label the dividend, divisor, and quotient. Each scenario presents equal-group situations that reinforce conceptual understanding of division vocabulary in context. Students must interpret the action in each story, translate it into a mathematical equation, and then identify each part of the division model. This helps them connect vocabulary with real-world problem-solving. The compact story problems build fluency in reading, reasoning, and mathematical labeling.
