Primary 1 Multiplication and Division

See equal groups, then count what the pictures show. Share the same collection equally to see division.

Keywords

Use each word while pointing to a group or a sharing picture.

Equal groups
Groups with the same number of objects in each one.
Number of groups
How many equal groups there are.
In each group
The number of objects in one group.
Multiply / times
Find the total in equal groups.
Divide / share equally
Split a collection into equal shares or equal-sized groups.
Altogether
The total number of objects in all the groups.

What multiplication and division mean

Multiplication joins equal groups. Division starts with a collection and makes equal shares or equal-sized groups. Choose a view to see how the same 12 apples can be arranged.

Look for: Every group must have the same number of apples. Point to each group and count its apples before reading the equation.

Multiplying within 40

Choose how many equal groups to show and how many apples go in each group. All selected groups appear together. Use the step-by-step button to build them one at a time. The picture stays within 40 apples.

Dividing within 20

Begin with all the apples in one collection. In each round, give one apple to every child. Stop when no apples remain, then count one child's share.
