Whole numbers divided to a decimal answer instead of a remainder: 7 ÷ 4 is 1.75. Each dividend is printed with a point and two zeros after it, 7.00, so there is something to keep dividing into, and the grid gives every digit of the working a column.
Work out each answer. Keep dividing into the zeros after the point, and put the point in the answer straight above the point in the number.

What is on this sheet
This is the sheet for the week after remainders. A child who can write 7 ÷ 4 = 1 r 3 has stopped at the point; annexing the zeros — 7.00 — and carrying on is the same algorithm run two more columns, and the point in the answer goes where the point in the number is. The zeros are printed rather than left for the child to add, because forgetting them is not the lesson.
Only divisors that share a factor with ten — 2, 4, 5, 6 and 8 here — can give an answer that stops, so those are the ones drawn; 7 ÷ 3 never ends and is not a question for this sheet. Every answer is printed to two places, 1.50 as well as 1.75: the zero is the last column worked and found empty, which is worth seeing once.
The answers were worked out when the problems were, so the key is the same page with the answers drawn in rather than a second attempt at the same questions — there is no way for the two to disagree. The number in the footer is the seed the sheet was built from: it is printed so that the identical sheet can be had again next week, rather than one that merely looks like it.
Change what is on it
This page is one sheet out of a family that can print thousands, and the settings behind it — how many problems, how big the numbers get, how they are laid out, whether there is room to work — are all switches. The builder link at the top of the page carries this sheet’s own settings, so the bench opens on exactly the sheet here rather than on a blank one.
The configuration travels in the address bar rather than on a server, so the link can be bookmarked or sent to somebody as it stands — and what they open is this sheet, down to the seed, rather than another one like it.
