50

Multiplication

5 × 10 = 50

Division

50 ÷ 5 = 10

• Count the rows, then count how many are in each row: 5 rows of 10 makes 5 × 10 = 50.
• As repeated addition that is 10 added 5 times: 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 50.
• Turning the array on its side does not change the total, which is the commutative property: 5 × 10 = 10 × 5 = 50.
• The same picture shows the two division facts as well: 50 ÷ 5 = 10 and 50 ÷ 10 = 5.
