A timed sheet on dividing by 5

Dividing by 5, from 0 ÷ 5 to 60 ÷ 5. Every problem on the sheet is drawn from that set and nothing outside it.

Choose 20, 50 or 100 problems and a limit of 1, 2 or 5 minutes, then print the sheet with its answer key on page two, or start the timer and type into the same grid. The problems are drawn again every time the page loads, so a second sheet is not a copy of the first. How the counts and limits work is on its own page, along with what a timed test does and does not measure.

Thirteen rows, with the answers

Where dividing by 5 goes wrong

Anything divisible by 5 ends in 0 or 5, so on a 5s sheet the size of the answer can be guessed from the dividend before any calculation: a trailing 0 means an even answer, a trailing 5 an odd one. A child who reads a clock already knows 60 ÷ 5 without treating it as division.

Three that come up

Which numbers divide evenly by 5?
Those ending in 0 or 5. That is why every dividend on this sheet ends in one of the two.
Does the last digit tell you anything about the answer?
Yes — a dividend ending in 0 gives an even quotient, ending in 5 gives an odd one.
Is 60 ÷ 5 part of this set?
Yes, and a child who reads a clock face has already met it as twelve five-minute marks.
