How to get fast at division facts
Division splits a number into equal groups: 24 ÷ 6 = 4 because 24 shared into 6 groups gives 4 in each. Every division fact is a multiplication fact turned around, so 6 × 4 = 24 also gives 24 ÷ 6 = 4 and 24 ÷ 4 = 6.
Practise one divisor at a time, in the same order as the times tables: divide by 2, 5 and 10 first, then 3, 4 and 8, then 6, 7, 9, 11 and 12. When each is quick, division facts mixes them all, and multiplication and division switches between the two operations.
After the exact facts come division with remainders, where 25 ÷ 4 is 6 remainder 1, and dividing by 10, 100 and 1000, which moves digits along the place value columns.

In what order should division be learned?
Most children start with dividing by 2, 5 and 10, then 3, 4 and 8, then 6, 7, 9, 11 and 12. Remainders come after the exact facts are secure.
What age are these division games for?
Simple division starts at around age 7 or 8 (second and third grade). Remainders and dividing by 1,000 suit ages 9 to 11.
