We can use multiplication tables to solve division problems.
Example
This flower has 5 petals.
A bunch of these flowers have 35 petals between them.
How many flowers are in the bunch?
Answer
We need to think of where 35 comes in the 5 times table.
You should know that
7 × 5 = 35
35 ÷ 5 = 7
7 flowers will have 35 petals.
