LEARN THESE MATHEMATICAL RULES

Adding numbers: answer is always BIGGER

Multiplying numbers: answer is always BIGGER

Subtracting numbers: answer is always SMALLER

Dividing numbers: answer is always SMALLER

· LEARN MATHEMATICAL RULES

The opposite of adding is subtracting.

The opposite of subtracting is adding.

The opposite of multiplying is dividing.

The opposite of dividing is multiplying.

· This week we are doing DIVISION.

· Division is the opposite of multiplication.

· Example: If 3 x 5 = 15, what is 15 ÷ by 5? ANSWER: = 3

· Example: If 5 x 5 = 25, what is 25 ÷ by 5? ANSWER: = 5

· We will be focusing on division by 5.

· Hopefully you know your 5 x table by now lovely childen!

· At SWB we have a cunning method to help us do division calculations as follows:

EXAMPLE: 20 ÷5 = 4

· Write down the 2 x table until you reach 20

5 10 15 20

Now count how many numbers there are until you reach 20

The answer is 4

EXAMPLE 2: 30 ÷5 = 6

· Write down the 2 x table until you reach 30

5 10 15 20 25 30

Now count how many numbers there are until you reach 30

The answer is 6

USING THE SWB METHOD ABOVE, PLEASE WORK OUT THE FOLLOWING CALCULATIONS ON A PIECE OF PAPER AT HOME.

Send me your answers and your workings out with your name on it please to shareyear1.2@swbschool.net.

1. 15 ÷ 5 =

2. 10 ÷ 5 =

3. 5 ÷ 5 =

4. 20 ÷ 5 =

5. 30 ÷ 5 =

6. 25 ÷ 5 =

7. 40 ÷ 5 =

8. 60 ÷ 5 =

9. 35 ÷ 5 =

10. 45 ÷ 5 =

11. 55 ÷ 5 =

12. 50 ÷ 5 =
