What's on this sheet

Each problem asks for two answers: how many whole groups (the quotient) and how many are left over (the remainder), written as 17 ÷ 5 = 3 R 2. The remainder is always smaller than the divisor, which is the check a child should learn to make every time. Choose how far the divisors go to set the difficulty.

Why this sheet works

Every problem is built so the remainder is genuine, never zero, and both parts are on the answer key.
