Solve with proficiency for quotients of up to a four-digit dividend by a two-digit divisor using strategies and the standard algorithm.
Teachers can use 5.3C to sequence instruction on Divide (up to 4-digit ÷ 2-digit) and monitor progress toward mastery.
Standard 5.3C in Mathematics helps students understand Divide (up to 4-digit ÷ 2-digit) and apply knowledge with confidence.
Start with concrete or familiar examples, connect to prior knowledge, model a clear process, and provide checks for understanding aligned to 5.3C.
Standard 5.3C describes the essential skills and understandings for Divide (up to 4-digit ÷ 2-digit) in Grade 5. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
It lays groundwork for the next grade by deepening accuracy and flexibility with Divide (up to 4-digit ÷ 2-digit), so students can tackle more complex problems later.
Use short exit tickets and tasks where students explain decisions, show multiple representations, or justify answers—directly aligned to 5.3C.
