Division is the reverse of multiplication, and in theory, a child who knows their times tables can divide. In practice, there's a whole extra step โ€” knowing that 56 divided by 7 means 'how many sevens in fifty-six' โ€” that has to be taught explicitly. The kids who struggle with division are almost never kids who can't multiply; they're kids who haven't been shown the two operations are connected.

The worksheets on this page start with that connection. Early sheets present division facts alongside their multiplication partners ('2 ร— 7 = 14, 14 รท 7 = 2') so the inverse relationship is obvious from day one. Middle sheets move to pure division facts drill, which needs the same kind of speed practice as multiplication tables. Advanced sheets introduce long division with two-digit and three-digit dividends, the Grade 4 and 5 standard.

Long division is famously the point where many kids think they hate maths. The trick is to make sure multiplication fluency is solid first โ€” if a child still has to count up to find 6 ร— 4, long division will be miserable. Times Tables Challenge and Multiplication Blast are the best preparation. Then pair with these worksheets and the transition is gentle.
