If you need 6th grade long division worksheets that you can print right now, this page builds them for you — 20 fresh problems, an answer key underneath, and no account to create first. A typical problem from the sheet in front of you is 662 ÷ 15, which works out to 44 R 2; another is 2,343 ÷ 39, giving 60 R 3.
‘New set of problems’ opens the generator in its own tab. There you can change the problem count and turn the answer key on or off. ‘Print or save as PDF’ opens the print dialog — choose Save as PDF in the printer list to keep the file. The sheet fits US Letter and A4, and the answer key prints on its own page.
Each generated sheet mixes divisions that come out exactly with divisions that leave a remainder, so the child cannot assume either outcome.
Estimation is not optional here. Before starting 2,343 ÷ 39, a rough answer tells the child how many digits 60 R 3 should have, which catches the most damaging class of error immediately.
Long division is the longest procedure in elementary arithmetic and the one where a single slip is fatal. Working 662 ÷ 15 correctly to 44 R 2 means running divide, multiply, subtract and bring-down in order, several times, without losing place.
If the subtraction step is where things go wrong, the problem is subtraction rather than division, and it is worth stepping back to that page for a few days before returning to problems like 435 ÷ 12.
In US classrooms these 6th grade long division worksheets are commonly aligned with the multi-digit division expectations for this grade, though the exact wording varies from state to state.
| # | Problem | Answer | What to check |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 662 ÷ 15 = | 44 R 2 | Watch for: forgetting a zero in the quotient |
| 2 | 2,343 ÷ 39 = | 60 R 3 | Check: subtraction slips inside a correct method |
| 3 | 1,358 ÷ 17 = | 79 R 15 | Look at: giving up when the first digit does not divide |
| 4 | 1,006 ÷ 18 = | 55 R 16 | Ask about: not checking by multiplying back |
| 5 | 435 ÷ 12 = | 36 R 3 | Watch for: bringing down two digits at once |
| 6 | 1,117 ÷ 14 = | 79 R 11 | Check: misaligning the quotient digits |
A good first problem to do together is 662 ÷ 15, which comes out at 44 R 2. Do 662 ÷ 15 once with the child narrating, then hand over the pencil and start the clock on the other 20 problems.
Try 1,358 ÷ 17 together before letting the child start alone. The answer to 1,358 ÷ 17 is 79 R 15, and talking through how it was reached takes about a minute and saves several minutes of guessing later in the sheet.
The answer key is generated with the worksheet, not written by hand, so it always matches the sheet in front of you — 662 ÷ 15 is listed as 44 R 2, 2,343 ÷ 39 as 60 R 3, and so on down the page.
Every generated sheet carries its own key on a separate printed page, which lets a child self-mark without seeing the answers while they work.
Portrait orientation is what the sheet is designed for. Landscape works but wastes about a third of the paper, so leave the orientation alone unless you have a reason.
If the problems look cramped, drop the count from 20 to a smaller number before printing these 6th grade long division worksheets; the font stays the same size and the spacing opens up.
