We can use multiplication tables to solve division problems.
Example
A flower has 5 petals.
A bunch of these flowers have 55 petals between them.
How many flowers are in the bunch?
Answer
We need to think of where 55 comes in the 5 times table.
55 ÷ 5 = 11
11 flowers will have 55 petals, so there are 11 flowers in the bunch.
