Basic Division Facts

This worksheet is designed to help students in Grades 4 and 5 build fluency and confidence with division facts involving divisors of 7 and 8, which are often among the more challenging basic facts. Problems are presented in a horizontal equation format, encouraging efficient mental computation and flexible thinking.

Skills Reinforced

• Division Facts Fluency (Grades 4-5)
  Strengthen speed and accuracy when dividing by 7 and 8.
• Operations and Algebraic Thinking
  Reinforce understanding of division as the inverse of multiplication.
• Patterns and Relationships in Division
  Recognize consistent quotient patterns connected to multiples of 7 and 8.
• Mental Math with Higher Facts
  Build confidence solving division problems without relying on written strategies.

Instructional Benefits

• Horizontal Equation Layout
  Supports mental math and quick recall rather than step-by-step algorithms.
• Mix of Single- and Double-Digit Dividends
  Encourages generalization of division facts across different number sizes.
• Repetition for Mastery
  Helps students internalize challenging facts through consistent practice.
• Strengthens Fact-Family Connections
  Reinforces multiplication-division relationships to support accuracy.
• Flexible Classroom Use
  Ideal for warm-ups, independent practice, small-group review, homework, or fluency building.

This printable worksheet provides focused, approachable practice with division by 7 and 8. Through repeated horizontal equations, students improve accuracy, recognize number patterns, and build the mental-math fluency needed for long division and more advanced mathematical problem solving.
