Division Dilemma

With a partner, play the Division Dilemma game. Create a 3–6 spinner and a 2–9 spinner.

Player 1 spins the 3–6 spinner. Player 2 names a dividend with that number of digits. Then

Player 1 spins the 2–9 spinner, which determines the divisor. The quotient is Player 1’s

score for the round. Player 2 then takes a turn.

Continue for 5 rounds. The player with more points wins.

What strategy did you use to give your partner a dividend?

Were there divisors that were easy for you to divide mentally? If so, which ones?

What is the greatest remainder that could occur in the game? Explain.

How would the game change if you spin the divisor spinner before the dividend spinner?

Play the game again but change the rules to get 1 point for each number that is in the

remainder. How did the game change?
