Practice that builds confidence

What students practise

These Grade 4 math worksheets help children build confidence with long division by 1-digit divisors. Students practise basic division facts, single-digit division with no remainder, and longer 3-by-1 and 4-by-1 digit problems.

The printable activities include problems with exact quotients and problems that leave remainders, including dividends within the listed range up to 1,100 where applicable. Children work through the full long division process: divide, multiply, subtract, bring down, and check.

In this Grade 4 Long Division collection, students move from knowing division facts to applying a written algorithm. The pages include single digit division with no remainder, 3x1 digit and 4x1 digit long division without remainders, and the same formats with remainders. Children see how a quotient is built one place at a time, using place value rather than guessing.

Skill progression

Start with long division basic facts so children can recall facts such as 42 ÷ 6 and 56 ÷ 7 quickly. Then use no-remainder questions to strengthen the routine. After that, introduce 3-digit by 1-digit and 4-digit by 1-digit dividends. Finally, use remainder questions so students learn that the amount left over must be smaller than the divisor and still part of the answer.

A simple parent routine

At home, choose one short set and ask your child to read the problem aloud first. Have them estimate: “Will the quotient be tens, hundreds, or thousands?” Next, let them solve while saying the steps: divide, multiply, subtract, bring down. End with a quick check by multiplying the quotient by the divisor and adding the remainder, if there is one.

Classroom uses

Teachers can use these worksheets for morning review, small-group reteaching, math centers, homework, or exit tickets after a long division lesson. Mixed pages are useful after students have learned the process, while focused pages help you target one need, such as 4x1 digit division with remainders.

Common errors to watch for

Students may forget to bring down the next digit, subtract incorrectly, write a quotient digit in the wrong place, or allow a remainder larger than the divisor. Some children also stop after the first division step. Encourage neat columns, one digit brought down at a time, and a check of every remainder.

After the child completes the worksheet independently, parents and teachers can use the answer support or answer key information to check the work, review mistakes, and choose the next practice step.

Why iBloom worksheets help

The worksheets give Grade 4 learners repeated, structured practice without rushing them into overly complex divisors. A child-friendly strategy is “DMSB and check”: Divide, Multiply, Subtract, Bring down, then check the answer. This keeps the long division routine clear and repeatable.

Helpful answers

Frequently asked questions

What long division skills are included in these Grade 4 worksheets?

They cover long division basic facts, single digit division with no remainder, 3-digit by 1-digit division, 4-digit by 1-digit division, and the same longer formats with remainders.

Should my child know multiplication facts before using these worksheets?

Yes. Quick recall of basic multiplication and division facts makes long division much easier because each step requires choosing a quotient digit and multiplying it by the divisor.

How can students check a long division answer with a remainder?

They multiply the divisor by the quotient, then add the remainder. The result should equal the original dividend. The remainder should also be smaller than the divisor.

Why does my child keep placing quotient digits in the wrong spot?

This usually means the child is not tracking place value. Have them line up digits carefully above the dividend and decide whether each quotient digit belongs in the ones, tens, hundreds, or thousands place.

Are these worksheets only for students who already understand remainders?

No. The collection includes no-remainder pages for building the long division routine first, followed by remainder practice once students are ready for the extra step.

Is this grade 4 long division worksheet free?

Yes. You can preview it for free and use the printable worksheet for home or classroom practice.

Can I download this grade 4 long division worksheet as a PDF?

Yes. Use the worksheet download option to save a printable PDF, or print the worksheet directly from the page.

Does this grade 4 long division worksheet include answers or an answer key?

When the activity has fixed answers, iBloom includes answer support so parents and teachers can check the completed worksheet.
