Inverse Operations: Multiplication & Division

Using the arrays below, solve the division problems. Use the inverse operation of multiplication to check your answers are correct.

12 ÷ 3 = 4

3 x 4 = 12

20 ÷ 4 =

4 x          = 20

15 ÷ 5 =

5 x          = 15

14 ÷ 2 = 

2 x          = 14

18 ÷ 6 = 

6 x          = 18

42 ÷ 6 = 

6 x         = 42

35 ÷ 7 = 

7 x           = 35

8 ÷ 2 = 

2 x           = 8

84 ÷ 12 = 

12 x           = 84

32 ÷ 8 = 

8 x           = 32

72 ÷ 8 = 

8 x         = 72

18 ÷ 3 = 

3 x          = 18
