What is Repeated Subtraction?

Repeated subtraction is a method of subtracting the equal number of items from a larger

group. It is also known as division.


If the same number is repeatedly subtracted from another larger number until the remainder is

zero or a number smaller than the number being subtracted, we can write that in the form of

division.

For example:

If there are 25 balls and we form a group of 5 balls each.

Here, the number 5 has been repeatedly subtracted 5 times. We can say that the number 5 has

been subtracted 5 times from 25. So, we can write this subtraction as 25 ÷ 5 = 5.

Similarly, to solve a division problem through repeated subtraction, we repetitively group and

subtract the same number again and again to find the answer. 

Here are a few examples of repeated subtraction. 

There are 34 stars. How many groups of 4 stars in each can be formed? 

In the given image we can see 34 stars. Now, using repeated subtraction, we can group them

in smaller groups of 4 stars in each group. We can start to subtract 4 stars repeatedly until we

are left with 0 or a number less than 4.

18 ÷ 6 18 ÷ 3
When the divisor is 6, we make groups When the divisor is 3, we make groups of

of 6. 3.

We get, 3 groups of 6. We get, 6 groups of 3.

So, 18 ÷ 6 = 3 So, 18 ÷ 3 = 6
 

Fun fact:

 Repeated subtraction is like jumping back from the bigger number until

you get a zero or a smaller number.


 

18 – 6 = 12       →          12 – 6 = 6         →      6 – 6 = 0

                                             or
                                     18 ÷ 6 = 3

Content Summary

What is a Conjunction?

A conjunction is a part of speech that is used to connect words, phrases, clauses, or sentences.

They can be one word or a few words. They join words, phrases, and clauses together and are

made to convey two ideas in one sentence.


Conjunctions: ‘AND’ and ‘BUT’

The conjunctions and / but can be used to join two statements.

And: shows addition and is used when the statements are similar.

I called Jan and we talked for an hour.

But: is used to connect statements that express opposite ideas.

I also called Steve, but he was not home.

Engage:

The teacher will sing a song entitled Conjunction of the tune ‘Bits of Paper.’

What Are Conjunctions?

Conjunctions are words that link other words, phrases, or clauses together.

I like cooking and eating, but I do not like washing dishes afterward. Sophie is clearly

exhausted, yet she insists on dancing till dawn.

Conjunctions allow you to form complex, elegant sentences and avoid the choppiness of

multiple short sentences. Make sure that the phrases joined by conjunctions are parallel (share

the same structure).


I work quickly and careful.

I work quickly and carefully.

Your writing, at its best

Be the best writer in the office.

Coordinating Conjunctions

Coordinating conjunctions allow you to join words, phrases, and clauses of equal

grammatical rank in a sentence. The most common coordinating conjunctions are for, and,

nor, but, or, yet, and so; you can remember them by using the mnemonic device FANBOYS.

I would like pizza or a salad for lunch. We needed a place to concentrate, so we packed up

our things and went to the library. Jesse did not have much money, but she got by.

Notice the use of the comma when a coordinating conjunction is joining two independent

clauses.

Correlative Conjunctions

Correlative conjunctions are pairs of conjunctions that work together. Some examples

are either/or, neither/nor, and not only/but also.

Not only am I finished studying for English, but I am also finished writing my history essay. I

am finished with both my English essay and my history essay.

Subordinating Conjunctions
Subordinating conjunctions join independent and dependent clauses. A subordinating

conjunction can signal a cause-and-effect relationship, a contrast, or some other kind of

relationship between the clauses. Common subordinating conjunctions are because, since, as,

although, though, while, and whereas. Sometimes an adverb, such as until,

after, or before can function as a conjunction.

I can stay out until the clock strikes twelve.

Here, the adverb until functions as a coordinating conjunction to connect two ideas: I can

stay out (the independent clause), and the clock strikes twelve (the dependent clause). The

independent clause could stand alone as a sentence; the dependent clause depends on the

independent clause to make sense.

The subordinating conjunction does not need to go in the middle of the sentence. It must be

part of the dependent clause, but the dependent clause can come before the independent

clause.

Before he leaves, make sure his room is clean.

If the dependent clause comes first, use a comma before the independent clause.

I drank a glass of water because I was thirsty. Because I was thirsty, I drank a glass of water.

Starting a Sentence with a Conjunction

Many of us were taught in school that it is an error to begin a sentence with a conjunction, but

that rule is a myth. As mentioned above, a subordinating conjunction can begin a sentence if

the dependent clause comes before the independent clause. It is also correct to begin a

sentence with a coordinating conjunction. Often, it is a good way to add emphasis. Beginning
too many sentences with conjunctions will cause the device to lose its force, however, so use

this technique sparingly.

Have a safe trip. And do not forget to call when you get home. Gertie flung open the door.

What is Repeated Subtraction?

Repeated subtraction is a method of subtracting the equal number of items from a larger

group. It is also known as division.

If the same number is repeatedly subtracted from another larger number until the remainder is

zero or a number smaller than the number being subtracted, we can write that in the form of

If there are 25 balls and we form a group of 5 balls each.


Here, the number 5 has been repeatedly subtracted 5 times. We can say that the number 5 has

been subtracted 5 times from 25. So, we can write this subtraction as 25 ÷ 5 = 5.

Similarly, to solve a division problem through repeated subtraction, we repetitively group and

subtract the same number again and again to find the answer. 

Here are a few examples of repeated subtraction. 

There are 34 stars. How many groups of 4 stars in each can be formed?

in smaller groups of 4 stars in each group. We can start to subtract 4 stars repeatedly until we

When the divisor is 6, we make groups When the divisor is 3, we make groups of

of 6. 3.
We get, 3 groups of 6. We get, 6 groups of 3.

So, 18 ÷ 6 = 3 So, 18 ÷ 3 = 6

However, the activity should have been differentiated as one group happened to get the more

gifted students and as a result, they were able to complete the activity in a much shorter

period. Therefore, in the future I will manually select students when doing group work and

differentiate their activities.

The teacher will recap repeated

subtraction with the students. Expected answer:

What is repeated subtraction? Repeated subtraction is

when you subtract the same

number again and again to

find the answer to a division

problem.

We learnt that division is the

inverse of ____ Multiplication


Example:

3x3=9

9÷3=3

2 x 6 = 12

12 ÷ 2 = 6

The teacher will state do you

know we can also use number

line to represent a division

problem.

Teacher will demonstrate how

we can use number line to

divide.

The teacher will state do you

know we can also use number

line to represent a division

problem.

Teacher will demonstrate how

we can use number line to

divide.

For example:

12 ÷ 4 =?

How many groups of 4 are in


12?

Using the number line. These

groups can be shown jumping

back from 12 subtracting 4 each

time.

Number line are used to solve

division statement.

Example:

When dividing by 2 you jump

back in group of 2

When dividing by 3 you jump

back in groups of 3.
Explore: The class will be divided in Students will work together

answers to the class.

Group 1: 27 ÷ 3 =

Since number 27 is the

dividend we start at 27 on

the number line. The divisor

is 3 so we are going to

jumped 3 numbers at a time

until we get to 0. We then

count each jump. Therefore,

the quotient is 9.

Group 2: 32 ÷ 4 =?

Since number 32 is the

dividend we start at 32 on

the number line. The divisor

is 4. So, we are going to

jumped 4 numbers at a time

until we get to 0. We then

count each jump. Therefore,

the quotient is 8.

Group 3: 24 ÷ 2 =?

Since number 24 is the

dividend we start at 24 on

the number line. The divisor

is 2. So, we are going to


jumped 2 numbers at a time

until we get to 0. We then

count each jump. Therefore,

the quotient is 12.

Evaluation:

The lesson was satisfactory. It stared on time. The students enjoyed the lesson as they

watched a video about using number line for division. It is evident they grasped the concept

and were able to link repeated subtraction to repeated addition using the number line. The

students were also encouraged to use their virtual number line to complete the activities
which most of them mastered using it effectively. However, the internet connection was

unstable, and the bandwidth was low causing glitches therefore students was given a task in

their Mathematics workbook to complete to strengthen their understanding.

What is Repeated Subtraction?


Repeated subtraction is a method of subtracting the equal number of items from a larger
group. It is also known as division.
If the same number is repeatedly subtracted from another larger number until the remainder is
zero or a number smaller than the number being subtracted, we can write that in the form of
division.
For example:
If there are 25 balls and we form a group of 5 balls each.

Here, the number 5 has been repeatedly subtracted 5 times. We can say that the number 5 has
been subtracted 5 times from 25. So, we can write this subtraction as 25 ÷ 5 = 5.
Similarly, to solve a division problem through repeated subtraction, we repetitively group and
subtract the same number again and again to find the answer. 
Here are a few examples of repeated subtraction. 
There are 34 stars. How many groups of 4 stars in each can be formed? 
In the given image we can see 34 stars. Now, using repeated subtraction, we can group them
in smaller groups of 4 stars in each group. We can start to subtract 4 stars repeatedly until we
are left with 0 or a number less than 4.

 
      34 - 4 = 30     30 - 4 = 26   26 - 4 = 22    22 - 4 = 18  18 - 4 = 14   14 - 4 = 10  10 - 4 = 6   
6-4=2
We get 8 groups of 4 and with 2 stars remaining.
This example can be mathematically written as 34 ÷ 4. Where 34 is the dividend. The divisor
is the number of stars in each group, that is, 4. The number of times 4 is subtracted is the
quotient. So, 8 is the quotient and the leftover stars are the remainder. So, 2 is the remainder.

Since repeated subtraction is division, it can be written in 2 ways.


Example: Let’s say there are 18 items. These can be written in 2 ways as shown.
18 ÷ 6 18 ÷ 3

When the divisor is 6, we make groups of 6. When the divisor is 3, we make groups of 3.
We get, 3 groups of 6.
We get, 6 groups of 3.
So, 18 ÷ 6 = 3
So, 18 ÷ 3 = 6
 
Fun fact:
 Repeated subtraction is like jumping back from the bigger number until you get a zero or a smalle
 

18 – 6 = 12       →          12 – 6 = 6         →      6 – 6 = 0


                                             or
                                     18 ÷ 6 = 3

The lesson was good. The students enjoyed singing the song ‘It’s a small, small world’. The

students were able to identify the similarities and differences between countries and the main

religion of Jamaica. The students were eager to do their research when asked about the main

religion of India. It is evident, the students were enthused in the discussion presented. The

lesson was mostly catered to auditory learners as we discussed valuable information.

However, the lesson did not cater to kinetics and visual learners. For future lesson I will use

activities that will cater to all learners.
