Long Division 2 Digit With Remainder 1To25 Practice Activities
Printable Grade 5 long division activities for dividing by 2-digit numbers and recording remainders from 1 to 25 accurately.
Practice that builds confidence
Building 2-digit divisor confidence
These Grade 5 math worksheets give children focused practice with long division using 2-digit divisors and nonzero remainders from 1 to 25. Students strengthen the full division cycle: estimate, divide, multiply, subtract, bring down, and check whether the remainder is reasonable.
The printable activities fit the Multiplication Division strand by connecting division to multiplication facts, place value, and multiples of 2-digit numbers. Problems are arranged so learners can build accuracy, show organized work, and explain what the quotient and remainder mean.
Long division with a 2-digit divisor asks Grade 5 students to think beyond memorized facts. A child may need to decide how many groups of 24, 36, or another 2-digit number fit into part of a larger dividend. These worksheets support that decision-making through repeated practice with quotients and remainders between 1 and 25, so students learn that a remainder is not an error—it is the amount left after making equal groups.
Concepts students practise
Children use the vocabulary dividend, divisor, quotient, and remainder while working through each problem. They estimate using nearby multiples, multiply the divisor by a possible quotient digit, subtract carefully, and compare the remainder to the divisor. The key rule is that the remainder must be smaller than the divisor. If the remainder is too large, the quotient digit needs to be adjusted.
A simple parent routine
At home, ask your child to solve one problem aloud before completing a row independently. Have them circle the divisor, underline the part of the dividend they are using, and say, “What multiple is close but not too high?” After the answer is found, check it together with: divisor × quotient + remainder = dividend. This short check builds confidence and catches many mistakes.
Classroom uses for teachers
Teachers can use these printables for guided practice after modeling 2-digit long division, independent seatwork, review folders, or small-group intervention. They also work well in math centers where students compare strategies: one child may use compatible numbers to estimate, while another lists multiples of the divisor. Finished problems can become quick partner checks using multiplication.
Common errors to watch for
Students often choose a quotient digit that is too large, subtract incorrectly across place values, forget to bring down the next digit, or write a remainder that is equal to or greater than the divisor. Some also check only the final answer without reviewing each subtraction step. Encourage neat columns and one digit of the quotient at a time.

Why iBloom worksheets help
The practice is focused on one demanding skill: 2-digit long division with remainders from 1 to 25. That narrow focus helps children notice patterns in multiples, refine estimates, and build fluency without switching between unrelated tasks. A child-friendly strategy is: estimate low, multiply, subtract, compare, then adjust if needed.
Helpful answers
Frequently asked questions
What skill do these Grade 5 worksheets focus on?
They focus on long division with 2-digit divisors where the final answer includes a nonzero remainder from 1 to 25.
How should my child check a long division answer with a remainder?
Multiply the divisor by the quotient, then add the remainder. The result should equal the original dividend.
What is the most important remainder rule in these problems?
The remainder must be smaller than the divisor. If it is equal to or larger than the divisor, the quotient is not complete.
Are these worksheets useful if my child knows basic division facts?
Yes. Basic facts help, but 2-digit divisor long division also requires estimating multiples, aligning place values, and checking subtraction steps.
How can teachers use these worksheets in class?
They can be used for guided practice, independent review, small-group reteaching, math centers, or partner checking with multiplication.
Is this Grade 5 long division 2 digit divisor with remainder worksheet free?
Yes. You can preview it for free and use the printable worksheet for home or classroom practice.
