About This Practice

Three numbers a, b and c (with c = a × b) form one “family” that yields four equations: two multiplications and two divisions. Watch the number bond and solve the equations one by one, feeling how the product found by multiplication is recovered by division.

Three numbers form one family: two multiplication and two division facts tied together. Solve all four equations one by one and feel how multiplication and division undo each other.
