Division Undoes Multiplication

Same three numbers, two directions. Write the missing number in each box.
12. The family of 3, 9, 27
3 × = 27 27 ÷ 3 = 27 ÷ = 3
13. The family of 4, 6, 24
4 × 6 = 24 ÷ 4 = 24 ÷ = 4
14. The family of 7, 8, 56. Write all four equations yourself.
If you know one multiplication fact, you already know two division facts. That is the whole trick.

Division Within 100

Concrete
1. Each group: 3, left over: 1  ·  2. Full bags: 3, left: 2
Representational
3. Tops: 10 and 3, so 52 ÷ 4 = 13
Abstract
4. 9   5. 9   6. 5   7. 9
8. 7 R1   9. 8 R2   10. 6 R4   11. 8 R5
Division Undoes Multiplication
12. 3 × 9 = 27   27 ÷ 3 = 9   27 ÷ 9 = 3
13. 4 × 6 = 24   24 ÷ 4 = 6   24 ÷ 6 = 4
14. 7 × 8 = 56, 8 × 7 = 56, 56 ÷ 7 = 8, 56 ÷ 8 = 7
The leftover counter in problem 1 is the whole lesson: a remainder is a real object that didn't fit, not a decoration on the answer. Students who see that never write "7 remainder 1" as "71".
