Use a Multiplication Grid to Divide

It is important to know all your times tables by heart up to 12 × 12.

This grid shows that

63 = 7 × 9  and  63 = 9 x 7

It can also be used in reverse to show that

63 ÷ 7 = 9 

and

63 ÷ 9 = 7

We can see that it does not show that 9 ÷ 7 = 63 and 7 ÷ 9 = 63.  We can sometimes get these a little muddled!

In this activity, we are going to practise our division skills.

This grid might be useful when answering the questions. We can see it again if we click on the red help button that appears on the screen.
