Division & Multiplication (2)

Example problems

1.  Make groups.  Then write down the division and multiplication facts that the pictures are illustrating.

Make groups of four. __ × 4 =  8 8 ÷ 4 = __	Make groups of two. __× 2 = __ __÷ 2 = __
__× 4 = __ __÷ 4 = __	__× 7 = __ __÷ 7 = __

 2.  Now draw sticks or balls and make a picture yourself.  Make groups.  Write the division and multiplication sentences.

Draw 27 sticks.  Make groups of 9.	Draw 32 sticks.  Make groups of 16.
Draw 8 sticks.  Make a group of 8.	Draw 18 sticks.  Make groups of 9.

3.  For each multiplication fact, write also a division fact. Think about the groups!

7 × 2 = __ ÷ 2 = __ 10 × 6 = __ ÷ __ =

12 × 2 = __ ÷ 2 =  1 × 5 = __ ÷ __ =

8 × 5 = __ ÷ 5 =  11 × 3 = __ ÷ __ =

You can solve a division problem if you think of the multiplication problem. 30 ÷ 6 = __   Think: what times 6 is 30? __  × 6 = 30

4.  For each division, think of the corresponding multiplication and solve.

14 ÷ 2 = __ × 2 =  14 18 ÷ 6 = __ × __ =

18 ÷ 2 = __ × 2 =  24 ÷ 4 = __ × __ =

15 ÷ 3 = __ × 3 =  33 ÷ 3 = __ × __ =

5.  Again think of the multiplication but do not write down the multiplication fact.

24 ÷ 4 =16 ÷ 2 = 20 ÷ 2 = 36 ÷ 9 =

48 ÷ 6 =56 ÷ 8 = 81 ÷ 9 = 100 ÷ 10 =
