November 15, 2007 9:14 pm Mathematics, The Son Lesson 3
- Multiplication and division are related.
- Division is the inverse of multiplication.
- When we write 5 X 6 = 30 and 5 X 6 = 30, the inverse is written as 30 ÷ 6 = 5 and 30 ÷ 5 = 6, respectively.
Lesson 4
Dividing numbers by 2 is the same as grouping into 2s or finding how many sets of 2 there are in all.
