The override won't budge until the quotient is dialed in. Seven hundred eighty-four divided by eight. Six hundred forty-eight divided by six. Three-digit dividends, single-digit divisors, and the answer entered digit by digit on separate wheels — which quietly mirrors how long division produces a quotient, one place at a time, left to right. Fourth grade division is where multiplication facts either pay off or get exposed, and this station is unforgiving about which.

Drawn from the same pool the activity uses, so these are the real thing rather than an illustration. The numbers change on every attempt — there is no fixed set to memorize.

Fourth graders who are slow here are usually not slow at division — they're slow at the multiplication facts underneath it. If a child can explain the method but takes a long time on each step, the fix is the times tables, not more division.
Official wording, quoted in full — not our summary of it:
