Modeling Repeated Subtraction on a Number Line to Solve Division Word Problems #2

Discover the relationship between division and subtraction with this third-grade math worksheet! Students will solve each of three division word problems by modeling the scenario on a number line. Young mathematicians will practice skip-counting to determine the answer and write out the equation.

Throughout this activity, learners will begin to see the connection between division and subtraction. While skip-counting, students can also start to recognize number patterns. Solving word problems can be challenging, but using familiar methods to find an answer can make it easier and help boost learners’ confidence!
