Why This Matters Missed a lesson — or just want a refresher? This catch-up station reviews Lessons 2.6 · 2.7 · 2.11 · 2.12: 2.6 Divide Multi-Digit Numbers Using an Algorithm, 2.7 Divide Decimals Using an Algorithm, 2.11 Add and Subtract Decimals, 2.12 Multiply Decimals. Work one example from each lesson, then prove you're caught up in the mixed practice.

Start hereWords for this lesson

Read each word before you begin. Say it out loud.

Word	What it means	Example
Divide Multi-Digit NumbersSpanish: Dividir números de varias cifras	Separate a multi-digit number into equal groups to find a quotient.	1,344 ÷ 12 = 112
DividendSpanish: Dividendo	The total number being divided into equal groups (the number inside the division bracket).	In 84.6 ÷ 6, it is 84.6
DivisorSpanish: Divisor	The number of equal groups you are dividing into (the number outside the division bracket).	In 84.6 ÷ 6, it is 6
QuotientSpanish: Cociente	The answer when you divide.	84.6 ÷ 6 = 14.1
RemainderSpanish: Residuo	What is left over when a number does not divide evenly.	17 ÷ 5 = 3 R 2 means 3 groups of 5 with 2 left over
Long divisionSpanish: División larga	A method that repeats four steps — divide, multiply, subtract, bring down — until there are no digits left to bring down.	1,344 ÷ 12 → divide, multiply, subtract, bring down, repeat

How it worksWorked example

These numbers are not on your problems. The steps are. Follow them with your own numbers.

A rope 25.2 meters long is cut into 6 equal pieces. How long is each piece?

Write 25.2 ÷ 6. Put the quotient’s point above the point in 25.2.
6 goes into 25 four times, 1 left over. Bring down the 2 to make 12.
12 ÷ 6 = 2. Check: 4.2 × 6 = 25.2.

Answer: 4.2 meters for each piece

Now you trySame steps, your turn

The steps are the same as the worked example. The numbers are yours. Do the work.

Watch out!A common mistake

A common mistake in Multiply Decimals is counting decimal places from only one factor instead of adding the decimal places from BOTH factors. For example, in 0.4 × 0.06, a student multiplies 4 × 6 = 24, then places the decimal point using just one factor's place count (1 place), writing 0.24 instead of the correct answer: 0.4 has 1 decimal place and 0.06 has 2 decimal places, for a total of 3, so 24 becomes 0.024. Before you submit, count the decimal places in EACH factor separately and add them together
