Let's use an area model to find the answer to $8024\div8$8024÷​8.

a

We set up the area model using a rectangle like this.

$8$8
Total area: $8024$8024

Now if we don't know straight away what $8024\div8$8024÷​8 is, we start with something we do know, like groups of $1000$1000.

Fill in the area used so far if we take out $1000$1000 groups of $8$8.

$1000$1000
$8$8 $\editable{}$
Total area: $8024$8024
b

How much area is remaining?

$1000$1000
$8$8 $8000$8000 $\editable{}$
Total area: $8024$8024
c

What is the width of the second rectangle?

  $1000$1000 $\editable{}$
$8$8 $8000$8000 $24$24
  Total area: $8024$8024
