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.
