Content of the previous lesson
In the previous lesson, students studied the following problem: "Suppose you want to divide 69 sheets of paper evenly between three people. How many sheets will each person get?" This made students think about how to solve 69÷ 3. They learned how to solve problems in which the numbers in both the tens and ones place of the dividend can be evenly divided by the divisor, 3 In problems like this, divide the numbers in each digit in the dividend by the divisor of 3, and then place those numbers in the quotient.
