Third Grade Division Worksheets

Sharing, grouping, fact families and word problems within 100, with no remainders and an answer key.

8 problems. Fact families: four facts from three numbers. Sheet CO4XYS, with its answer key.

How it works

These third grade division worksheets stay within 100 and never leave a remainder. The page opens on fact families, which ask for two × facts and two ÷ facts from three numbers. The menu adds sharing, arrays and word problems.

Two meanings of one division

12 ÷ 3 = 4 answers two questions. Share 12 cookies among 3 plates and 4 is how many on each plate. Pack them in bags of 3 and 4 is how many bags. Common Core 3.OA.2 asks for both meanings, so each has a sheet: Share equally: how many in each group? and Make equal groups: how many groups?

Why no sheet has a remainder

Neither Common Core nor the Texas standards mention remainders in grade 3. They arrive in grade 4 (4.NBT.6, Texas 4.4(H)). So these 3rd grade division worksheets keep every dividend a multiple of its divisor, and the facts stop at 100 ÷ 10. Texas 3.4(F) sets that limit: facts up to 10 by 10.

  • Stuck on 63 ÷ 9? Ask what times 9 makes 63. Divide by 6, 7 and 9 leans on that.
  • Print Word problems: equal shares before Word problems: lengths, liters and dollars: Common Core's problem table puts countable things first.
  • A hidden In number on In and out tables with × and ÷ rules makes pupils run the rule backwards.

Questions and answers

What division do third graders learn?

Common Core grade 3 starts with what a quotient means, then asks for word problems within 100 (3.OA.3), the unknown number in an equation (3.OA.4), division as an unknown factor (3.OA.6) and fluent facts within 100 (3.OA.7).

Are there division worksheets grade 3 with pictures?

Yes, three. Share equally: how many in each group? prints dots and empty plates, Make equal groups: how many groups? prints dots to ring, and Divide with an array prints rows of dots. The word problems have no pictures.

What is a fact family in multiplication and division?

Three numbers that make four facts: 6, 7 and 42 give 6 × 7 = 42, 7 × 6 = 42, 42 ÷ 6 = 7 and 42 ÷ 7 = 6. Squares like 6 × 6 are skipped: they make only two.

Do you have multiplication and division worksheets grade 3 pupils can use?

Two sheets use both signs. Every box on the fact family sheet asks for two × facts and two ÷ facts, and half the in and out tables multiply. A sheet that shuffles plain × and ÷ facts is not on this page yet.

All 14 sheet types

Sharing and grouping 4

  • Divide with a strip diagram A strip labelled 35 is cut into 5 equal parts, and each part is 35 ÷ 5 = 7. Texas standard 3.5(B) names strip diagrams for division within 100. Common Core's glossary calls the same drawing a tape diagram or bar model.
  • Divide with an array 24 dots in 4 equal rows: 24 ÷ 4 = 6 in each row. The array is drawn, and pupils write the division and the multiplication that checks it, 4 × 6 = 24. Common Core 3.OA.3 lists arrays beside equal groups.
  • Make equal groups: how many groups? 12 dots ringed in groups of 3: 12 ÷ 3 = 4 groups. The numbers match the sharing sheet, but the question has changed from how many in each group to how many groups. Pupils ring groups of 3 and count the rings.
  • Share equally: how many in each group? 12 dots shared equally among 3 plates: 12 ÷ 3 = 4 on each plate. Pupils draw the dots onto the plates one at a time, then write the division. This is the first of the two meanings Common Core 3.OA.2 gives a quotient.

Division facts within 100 4

  • Divide by 2, 5 and 10 45 ÷ 5 = 9. All 30 facts for the three easiest divisors, each printed once. Dividing by 2 is halving, every multiple of 5 ends in 0 or 5, and every multiple of 10 ends in 0. England's curriculum teaches these three tables first, in Year 2.
  • Divide by 3, 4 and 8 32 ÷ 8 = 4. Dividing by 4 is halving twice, and dividing by 8 is halving three times: 32, then 16, then 8, then 4. England's Year 3 teaches the 3, 4 and 8 tables together and links 2, 4 and 8 by doubling.
  • Divide by 6, 7 and 9 63 ÷ 9 = 7. These divisors have no halving shortcut, so each fact leans on multiplication: 63 ÷ 9 asks what number times 9 makes 63. Print it after the easier divisors are secure.
  • Mixed division facts, ÷ 2 to ÷ 10 72 ÷ 8 = 9. Divisors from 2 to 10 and quotients up to 10 make 90 facts, and each sheet prints 40 of them with none repeated. Common Core 3.OA.7 asks pupils to divide fluently within 100, and Texas 3.4(F) asks them to recall the division facts that match 10 by 10.

Multiplication and division together 1

  • Fact families: four facts from three numbers 6, 7 and 42 make 6 × 7 = 42, 7 × 6 = 42, 42 ÷ 6 = 7 and 42 ÷ 7 = 6. Each box gives three numbers and four blank lines. Squares such as 6, 6 and 36 are left out, because they make only two facts. The page opens on this sheet: 8 families, with an answer key.

Unknown numbers and tables 1

  • In and out tables with × and ÷ rules Rule: ÷ 4. In 28, out 7, because 28 ÷ 4 = 7. Half the tables on a sheet divide and half multiply, and some rows hide the In number, so pupils work the rule backwards. Texas standard 3.5(E) asks for number pairs in a table.

Word problems within 100 4

  • Word problems: arrays and area 42 seeds planted in 6 equal rows: 42 ÷ 6 = 7 in each row. A floor of 40 square tiles that is 5 tiles wide: 40 ÷ 5 = 8 tiles long. Rows, columns and rectangles, with one side always missing.
  • Word problems: equal shares 24 grapes shared equally among 6 children: 24 ÷ 6 = 4 each. Six short problems, all asking how many in each group. The things shared can be counted, which Common Core's table of problem types says should come before measurements.
  • Word problems: how many groups? 30 eggs packed in boxes of 6: 30 ÷ 6 = 5 boxes. The size of a group is given and the number of groups is asked for. Pupils who have only met sharing need to see that this is still division.
  • Word problems: lengths, liters and dollars A ribbon 36 inches long cut into 4 equal pieces: 36 ÷ 4 = 9 inches each. Measurement problems within 100, in inches, liters, kilograms and dollars, all with whole-number answers. Common Core 3.OA.3 names measurement quantities beside equal groups and arrays.

How this list was compiled: The sheet types, the word problems and the worked sums were written for this page. What third graders are asked to do was checked on 2026-09-19 against the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, including its glossary table of problem types (https://www.cde.ca.gov/be/st/ss/documents/ccssmathstandardaug2013.pdf), the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for Mathematics (https://tea.texas.gov/sites/default/files/ch111a.pdf) and the national curriculum in England (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5a7da548ed915d2ac884cb07/PRIMARY_national_curriculum_-_Mathematics_220714.pdf, Open Government Licence). The two meanings of division, how many in each group and how many groups, were checked the same day against https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotition_and_partition. Licence: own work
