Delicious Division

We are learning to solve division equations using our knowledge of multiplication.

Multiplication practice:

56 ➗ 8 = 7             72 ➗ 9 = 8                44 ➗ 11 = 4

45 ➗ 9 = 5              64 ➗ 8 = 8                56 ➗ 7 = 8 

35 ➗ 5 = 7             144 ➗ 12 = 12           27 ➗ 3 = 8
