🔄 Part 1: Understanding Reversibility

1. Complete the family of facts for each set:

Example: 7 × 8 = 56, so 8 × 7 = 56, 56 ÷ 7 = 8, and 56 ÷ 8 = 7

a) 6 × 9 = 54

9 × 6 = _____

54 ÷ 6 = _____

54 ÷ 9 = _____

b) 8 × 5 = 40

5 × 8 = _____

40 ÷ 8 = _____

40 ÷ 5 = _____

2. Circle the correct multiplication problem that matches each division:

42 ÷ ? = 7

? × 7 = 42

7 × ? = 42

42 × 7 = ?

🧮 Part 2: Converting Problems

3. Convert each division problem into a multiplication problem and solve:

a) 63 ÷ ? = 9

Multiplication problem: _____________ × 9 = 63

Answer: ? = _____

b) 48 ÷ 6 = ?

Multiplication problem: 6 × _____________ = 48

Answer: ? = _____

c) ? ÷ 8 = 7

Multiplication problem: 8 × 7 = _____________

Answer: ? = _____

4. Convert each multiplication problem into a division problem:

a) ? × 6 = 54

Division problem: 54 ÷ 6 = _____

b) 9 × ? = 72

Division problem: 72 ÷ _____ = 9

c) 7 × 8 = ?

Division problem: _____ ÷ 7 = 8

🎯 Part 3: Problem Solving

5. Solve these missing number problems using reversibility:

a) 81 ÷ ? = 9

Answer: ? = _____

b) ? × 7 = 56

Answer: ? = _____

c) 64 ÷ 8 = ?

Answer: ? = _____

6. Check all the division problems that can be solved using the multiplication fact 6 × 7 = 42:

42 ÷ 6 = ?

42 ÷ 7 = ?

42 ÷ ? = 6

42 ÷ ? = 7

? ÷ 6 = 7
