5th Grade Dividing by Two-Digit Divisors Worksheet (PDF)

These 20 problems practice dividing whole numbers by two-digit divisors (Common Core 5.NBT.B.6). The dividends have up to four digits. You will use partial quotients and area models, estimate quotients with compatible numbers, and interpret remainders.
Check each answer by multiplying. The last six problems are word problems where you must decide what the remainder means.
