What your child practises
Multiplication and division facts to 100 with arrays, fact families and strategies like doubling, using 10s, and thinking multiplication to divide.
BC Curriculum learning standard: Multiplication and division facts to 100 (introductory computational strategies)
How we explain it
Children can open this short lesson before they practise.
- Use facts you know to find the ones you don't.
- Split a number into easy parts.
- Division is the opposite of multiplication.
Example: 7 × 8 = ? 5 × 8 = 40. 2 × 8 = 16. 40 + 16 = 56. Answer: 56
Sample questions
A taste of this unit. In the app, questions change every time and get easier or harder to match your child.
Question 1
Which fact is in the same fact family as 8 × 7 = 56?
- 56 ÷ 7 = 7
- 56 ÷ 8 = 7
- 56 − 8 = 48
- 8 + 7 = 15
Show answer
56 ÷ 8 = 7
Hint: A fact family uses the same three numbers: 8, 7 and 56. Division undoes multiplication, so 56 ÷ 8 = 7.
Question 2
What is 9 × 4?
9 × 4 = ?
- 36
- 32
- 40
- 45
Show answer
36
Hint: Use 10s: 10 × 4 = 40, then take away one 4. So 9 × 4 = 36.
Question 3
63 cookies are shared equally among 7 friends. How many cookies does each friend get?
🍪- 9
- 11
- 8
- 10
Show answer
9
Hint: Divide: 63 ÷ 7. Think: 7 × what number = 63? 7 × 9 = 63.
Question 4
How many 🐞 are in this array?
🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞- 42
- 49
- 35
- 48
Show answer
42
Hint: There are 6 rows with 7 in each row. 6 × 7 = 42.
Question 5
What number goes in the box?
5 × = 15
- 5
- 3
- 4
- 2
Show answer
3
Hint: Think division: 15 ÷ 5 = 3. Check: 5 × 3 = 15.
Question 6
What is 4 × 9?
4 × 9 = ?
answer box
Show answer
36
Hint: Use 10s: 10 × 4 = 40, then take away one 4.
