Division using Reverse Multiplication
We will learn how to do division using reverse multiplication.
1. Let us divide 6 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.
|
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.
|
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 |
