What we are learning

Link multiplication to division and solve problems with remainders.

You will need: Pencil, Counters, Small pots or trays for sharing

Warm-up

Share 12 counters between 2 children, then 3, then 4. What happens with 5?

Helper

÷ means share equally× and ÷ are oppositesr means 'left over'

1Divide it

Share the counters equally, then write the answer.

2Fact families

Write four facts for each set of numbers.

× fact× fact÷ fact÷ fact
2, 5, 10
5, 4, 20
10, 3, 30
2, 9, 18

3Left over

Share these out. Write how many each and how many left over.

  1. 1. 13 sweets between 2 children
  2. 2. 17 pencils between 5 pots
  3. 3. 23 cubes between 10 trays
  4. 4. 19 grapes between 2 plates

4Grouping or sharing?

Tick which one each question is asking for.

20 cakes into boxes of 5

20 cakes shared between 5 friends

30 pencils into pots of 10

5Missing numbers

Fill in the box to make each fact correct.

6Practise again

Try these without counters, then check two with multiplication.

  • I checked two answers by multiplying back.
  • I wrote remainders as 'r'.

7Problem solving & take it home

A pack holds 5 buns. Miss Ada needs 32 buns. How many packs must she buy? Explain. Then at home, find something sold in packs and work out how many packs you would need for 20.

My working and explanation

At home I found…

⭐ Challenge

Find a number under 50 that can be shared equally by 2, 5 and 10. Is there more than one? List them all.

How did I do?

  • I can divide by 2, 5 and 10.
  • I can write a fact family.
  • I can explain a remainder.
  • I can check a division by multiplying.
