Multiplication and Division Practice

      1.    4 x 6 = 24
       2.   4 x 5 = 20
       3.   4 x 8 = 32
       4.   4 x 12 = 48
       5.    28 x 2 = 56
       6.   33 x 10 = 330
       7.   40 x 30 = 1200
       8.   4 x 7 = 28
       9.   40 ÷ 4 = 10          
      10.   12 ÷ 4  = 3       
      11.   16 ÷ 4 = 4
      12.   25 ÷  5 = 5

Task Description:

In this blog post you can see room 11 maths class has been working on ratios. We've been learning the strategies of how to solve these equations out. We were tasked to post at least one of the documents. I decided to post Doc 1 and 2. This was a really fun document to do as it was quite easy. Although I have worked with ratios before so yeah !:)

Make sure you are all safe! Enjoy your time, make the most of it! God Bless xo
