FAST Practice Quiz Answers
1
B. 408
2,856 / 7: 7 goes into 28 four times (28), into 5 zero times, into 56 eight times. Answer: 408. Check: 408 x 7 = 2,856.
2
B. 608
3,648 / 6: 6 goes into 36 six times (36), into 4 zero times, into 48 eight times. Answer: 608. Check: 608 x 6 = 3,648.
3
A. 369 books
1,845 / 5 = 369. Check: 369 x 5 = 1,845. Each shelf gets 369 books.
4
A. 30 R 7
247 / 8: 8 x 30 = 240. 247 - 240 = 7. Answer: 30 R 7. Check: 30 x 8 + 7 = 247.
5
504
4,536 / 9 = 504. Check: 504 x 9 = 4,536. No remainder.
6
A. 21 pencils each, 7 left over
175 / 8 = 21 R 7. Check: 21 x 8 = 168. 175 - 168 = 7. Each student gets 21 pencils, 7 remain.
7
B. 10 buses
83 / 9 = 9 R 2. But we need to fit ALL 83 students! 9 buses only fit 81 students. Need 10 buses to include the remaining 2.
8
C. 753
6,024 / 8 = 753. Check: 753 x 8 = 6,024. Note the 0 in the quotient is easy to miss!
9
26
156 / 6 = 26 with no remainder. The baker can fill exactly 26 full boxes. Check: 26 x 6 = 156.
10
B. 413 stickers
2,478 / 6 = 413 R 0 (no remainder). Each friend gets exactly 413 stickers. Check: 413 x 6 = 2,478.

Common Errors: Forgetting zeros in quotient (getting 48 instead of 408), remainder larger than divisor, not interpreting remainders correctly in context, subtraction errors in long division.
