Equivalent Number Sentences Tasks

Use inverse operations to find missing values. Check your answers by substituting them into the original number sentence.

Inverse Operations

1.Find the missing number: 7 × □ = 56.
2.Find the missing number: □ ÷ 9 = 7.
3.Complete the equivalent number sentence: 6 × 8 = □ ÷ 3.
4.If 54 ÷ 6 = 9, complete the related multiplication sentence: 9 × 6 = □.
5.Choose the number sentence that uses the inverse operation of 8 × 7 = 56.
  • 56 ÷ 8 = 7
  • 56 + 8 = 7
  • 56 − 8 = 7

Equivalent Sentences and Unknown Values

6.Solve 14 × m = 98. Then write a multiplication sentence that checks your answer.
7.Write two different number sentences equivalent to 72 ÷ 8 = 9.
8.Write two different number sentences equivalent to 9 × 11 = 99.
9.Find x in 168 ÷ x = 14. Show how an inverse operation helps you solve it.

Reasoning and Problem Solving

10.At a recycling drive, Mei packs 18 cans into each crate. Let a be the number of crates she fills with 234 cans. Ivy says a = 234 + 18. Explain why Ivy's operation is not correct, then find a.
11.Layla sorts 96 drink containers equally into x boxes, with 12 containers in each box. Use 96 ÷ x = 12 to find x, and explain how you checked the answer.
