Score:
/6

Instructions: Work through each activity in order. Use the examples, groups and arrays to help you recall the 2, 5 and 10 times tables and write multiplication and division number sentences. Check whether your answers are odd or even.

1

Warm Up: Times Tables

Work out each number sentence. Think of equal groups or count in 2s, 5s or 10s. Write each answer in its box.

Example: 2 × 3 means 2 groups of 3, so 2 × 3 = 6.

1. 2 × 4 =

2. 5 × 3 =

3. 10 × 2 =

4. 2 × 6 =

5. 5 × 5 =

2

Odd or Even?

Find each total, then decide whether it is odd or even. Write the number and its label in the box, for example, “8, even”.

1. 2 × 3 =

2. 5 × 2 =

3. 10 × 1 =

4. 5 × 3 =

3

Write the Number Sentence

Use the groups described in each question to write a multiplication or division number sentence. Include × or ÷ and =, then work out the answer. For example, 3 groups of 2 is 3 × 2 = 6.

1. There are 4 equal groups of 5 apples. Write a multiplication sentence and find the total.

2. 20 counters are shared equally between 5 children. Write a division sentence and find how many each child gets.

3. There are 2 equal rows of 10 chairs. Write a multiplication sentence and find the total.

4. 10 biscuits are shared equally between 2 plates. Write a division sentence and find how many go on each plate.

4

Arrays and Repeated Addition

An array has equal rows. Count the objects in each array, then write a multiplication sentence and a repeated-addition sentence to show the total. Example: 2 rows of 3 is 2 × 3 = 3 + 3 = 6.

1. Two rows of 4: 🍎🍎🍎🍎
🍎🍎🍎🍎

Multiplication: Repeated addition:

2. Three rows of 5: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Multiplication: Repeated addition:

5

Does the Order Matter?

For multiplication, the factors can swap places and the total stays the same. For division, swapping the numbers can change the answer. Work out each sentence and write the answer in its box.

1. 2 × 5 =

2. 5 × 2 =

3. 10 ÷ 2 =

4. 2 ÷ 10 =

6

Think It Through

Read each short problem carefully. Use a times-table fact, equal groups or repeated addition to help. Write the answer in the box.

1. Sam puts 5 pencils in each of 3 pots. How many pencils are there altogether?

2. Five children each have 2 stickers. How many stickers do they have altogether?

3. 20 toy cars are put into 10 equal groups. How many cars are in each group?

4. There are 10 pairs of socks. How many socks are there altogether?

Answer Key

Activity 1: 8 ; 15 ; 20 ; 12 ; 25

Activity 2: 6, even ; 10, even ; 10, even ; 15, odd

Activity 3: 4 × 5 = 20 ; 20 ÷ 5 = 4 ; 2 × 10 = 20 ; 10 ÷ 2 = 5

Activity 4: 2 × 4 = 8, 4 + 4 = 8 ; 3 × 5 = 15, 5 + 5 + 5 = 15

Activity 5: 10 ; 10 ; 5 ; 0 remainder 2 (2 does not divide equally into 10)

Activity 6: 15 pencils ; 10 stickers ; 2 cars ; 20 socks
