We will learn how to do division using reverse multiplication.


1. Let us divide 6 by 2.

6 Divided by 2

Recall the multiplication table of 2.



How many twos are 6?

3 twos are 6.

As 3 × 2 = 6, 6 ÷ 2 = 3.

   Recall

1 × 2 = 2

2 × 2 = 4

3 × 2 = 6

4 × 2 = 8

5 × 2 = 10


2. Divide 20 by 5.

Divide 20 by 5

Recall the multiplication table of 5.



How many fives are 20?

4 fives are 20.

As 4 × 5 = 20, 20 ÷ 5 = 4.

   Recall

1 × 5 = 5

2 × 5 = 10

3 × 5 = 15

4 × 5 = 20

5 × 5 = 25


3. Divide 30 by 5.

Divide 30 by 5

Recall the multiplication table of 5.




How many fives are 30?

6 fives are 30.

As 6 × 5 = 30, 30 ÷ 5 = 6.

   Recall

1 × 5 = 5

2 × 5 = 10

3 × 5 = 15

4 × 5 = 20

5 × 5 = 25

6 × 5 = 30

7 × 5 = 35

8 × 5 = 40
