Division

88 ÷ 8 = 11

• Count the rows, then count how many are in each row: 8 rows of 11 makes 8 × 11 = 88.
• As repeated addition that is 11 added 8 times: 11 + 11 + 11 + 11 + 11 + 11 + … = 88.
• Turning the array on its side does not change the total, which is the commutative property: 8 × 11 = 11 × 8 = 88.
• The same picture shows the two division facts as well: 88 ÷ 8 = 11 and 88 ÷ 11 = 8.
