Main activity:
Today, we are learning to divide by 10.
Remember:
Remember:
- When you divide by 1 the answer stays the same. Example, 21 ÷ 1 = 21
- When you divide by 10, the number becomes 10 times smaller and all the digits move one place to the right. Example, 210 ÷ 10 = 21. Another way of thinking of it is: how many 10s are there hiding in a number?
Watch this video to see how to divide by 10.
When you get to question 8, watch this video to help you:
