Missing Numbers

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed to practice decimal division using number lines as a visual aid. Each problem presents a division sentence with a missing number that students must fill in to complete the equation. The number lines show increments that correlate with the division problem, and students use the visual representation to understand the division process. The worksheet contains five problems, each progressively increasing in difficulty to challenge the student’s understanding of decimal division.

The worksheet aims to teach students the concept of dividing decimals by using a number line to illustrate the process. By visualizing division as the number of jumps on a number line, students can better grasp how many times one number fits into another. This method reinforces the understanding of division as repeated subtraction and helps students develop a more intuitive sense of division with decimals. Moreover, it’s a practical approach to help students transition from concrete to more abstract mathematical thinking.
