Long division facts with remainders

Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher

"Long division facts with remainders" is written for 3rd Grade (Ages 8-9), and it covers Common Core 4.NBT.B.6. This is an enrichment worksheet: that standard belongs to 4th grade, so it gives students who are ready for a challenge an early look at a skill they will meet later. If your little one is a year younger but already steady on division, the page still works. You may just need to read the instructions out loud. And if they are older and long division never quite stuck, this is a short review rather than busywork.

Long division facts with remainders: a free printable 3rd grade math worksheet (enrichment). Divide. Answer key included. Aligned to 4.NBT.B.6. Part of our long division collection.

How do I use this worksheet?

Before handing out the worksheet, briefly introduce the concept with a short oral warm-up or a visual model on the board. Let students work through it independently, using a partner or small group only if they want to talk through their thinking, encouraging them to talk through their thinking: "What strategy are you using? How do you know that is right?" After completing the worksheet, review any missed problems together and discuss the reasoning rather than just the answer. For extra support, let students use manipulatives or draw pictures alongside the written problems. These long division worksheets work well as daily practice, homework, or a focused review activity.

What students will practice

  • Students will recognize and apply long division concepts using visual models and written strategies.
  • Students will solve problems involving long division with increasing accuracy and confidence.
  • Students will connect long division skills to real-world situations and explain their reasoning clearly.

What does this worksheet teach?

⌄

These long division worksheets for 3rd grade give students the structured, hands-on practice they need to build confidence and fluency. Students work through a range of problem formats, from visual models and diagrams to written equations and word problems, so they encounter long division from every angle. Each worksheet is designed to build on prior knowledge while introducing the level of challenge appropriate for 3rd grade. Practicing long division at this stage strengthens the mathematical foundations that support more advanced concepts in later grades.

Can I use this long division worksheet for homeschool or classroom?

⌄

Yes, both. We made it for 3rd Grade division, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with long division. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

What division concepts should third graders learn?

⌄

Third graders learn that division means splitting into equal groups or finding how many groups. Per CCSS 3.OA.A.2, they should interpret whole-number quotients and solve division word problems within 100. They should understand division as the inverse of multiplication.

How do you introduce division to third graders?

⌄

Start with sharing equally: give 12 items to 3 people, how many does each get? Use concrete objects, then pictures, then equations. Worksheets with visual division (circling equal groups) bridge the concrete-to-abstract gap effectively.
