Fill in the blank: 4 Ã- __ = 28.
6
7
8
5
Four times seven equals 28. You can reverse the operation by dividing 28 by four to find seven.
Which multiplication gives the largest product?
6 Ã- 11 = 66
12 Ã- 5 = 60
8 Ã- 9 = 72
9 Ã- 7 = 63
Out of the given products, 8 Ã- 9 equals 72 which is the highest. Comparing each result shows this is largest.
What is 3 Ã- 12?
24
36
27
30
Three groups of twelve equal 36. This fact can also be seen as adding twelve three times.
Which decomposition correctly uses the distributive property to compute 7 Ã- 12 mentally?
(7 + 12) Ã- 2
(12 Ã- 7) ÷ 2 + 12
(7 Ã- 10) + (7 Ã- 2)
(12 Ã- 2) + 7
The distributive property allows splitting 12 into 10 and 2. Then 7 Ã- 10 + 7 Ã- 2 yields 70 + 14 = 84. This simplifies the mental calculation.
Which sequence uses doubling to calculate 9 Ã- 8 efficiently?
Calculate 8 Ã- 8 = 64, then add 9 to get 73
Calculate 9 Ã- 4 = 36, then double to get 72
Calculate 9 + 8 = 17, then multiply by 8 to get 136
Calculate 9 Ã- 2 = 18, then add 8 to get 26
Doubling the half-product turns 9 Ã- 4 into the original 9 Ã- 8. First 9 Ã- 4 gives 36, and doubling gives 72. This method uses halving and doubling to speed up calculation.
Which product does NOT follow the pattern of identical digits in the 11 times table?
11 Ã- 4 = 44
11 Ã- 12 = 132
11 Ã- 7 = 77
11 Ã- 9 = 99
For 11 Ã- n where n is a single digit, the product has identical digits (e.g., 11 Ã- 7 = 77). Multiplying by 12 breaks this pattern and yields 132. This illustrates that the simple pattern applies only up to 11 Ã- 9.
A theater has 11 rows of seats, and each row has 12 seats. If 9 rows are occupied, how many seats remain empty?
24
132
90
108
The total seats are 11 Ã- 12 = 132. Occupied seats are 9 Ã- 12 = 108, so empty seats are 132 - 108 = 24. This uses multiplication and subtraction in sequence.
A fabric is divided into a grid of 5 columns and 12 rows of squares. A patch covers 3 columns and 2 rows. How many squares remain uncovered?
54
60
18
6
There are 5 Ã- 12 = 60 total squares. The patch covers 3 Ã- 2 = 6 squares, so 60 - 6 = 54 squares remain. This problem applies multiplication followed by subtraction.

Cheat Sheet

  1. Master the Commutative Property of Multiplication - The commutative property lets you swap factors without changing the result, turning 3 × 4 into 4 × 3 for a smooth 12 every time. This switcheroo wizardry simplifies your calculations and boosts your math confidence in a flash.
  2. Apply the Distributive Property for Efficient Calculations - Break complex problems into bite-sized pieces, like turning 8 × 27 into (8 × 20) + (8 × 7). This puzzle-solving trick speeds up your work and gives you extra brainpower for the fun parts of math!
  3. Utilize Doubling and Halving Techniques - Supercharge your mental math by doubling and halving: to multiply by 4, double twice (59 → 118 → 236). It's like giving your brain a turbo boost without paper or pen!
  4. Practice Multiplying by 9 Using the Subtraction Method - Use the ninja 9-slayer trick: multiply by 10 then subtract the original number. For instance, 37 × 9 = 370 − 37 = 333, a slick shortcut for speedy accuracy.
  5. Enhance Speed with Multiplying by 5 - Multiply by 10, then halve it. So 5 × 48 = (10 × 48) ÷ 2 = 480 ÷ 2 = 240. This simple hoof-and-halve method makes 5's feel like your new best friend.
  6. Break Down Large Numbers Using Place Value - Demolish big numbers by splitting them: 3 × 1847 = 3 × (1000+800+40+7). Add (3000+2400+120+21) to get 5521 - easy as A+B+C+D!
  7. Use Rounding and Adjusting for Quick Estimates - Round to the nearest ten, multiply, then tweak the result. To find 19 × 7, do 20 × 7 = 140, then subtract 7 for a confident 133. Fast checks made fun!
  8. Recognize Patterns in Multiplication Tables - Become a pattern detective: notice that multiples of 5 always end in 0 or 5, and the 9's digit patterns. Spotting these helps you recall facts in a snap.
  9. Practice Mental Multiplication Regularly - Treat your brain like a muscle - daily drills of mental strategies build speed and accuracy. Soon, tough multiplications will feel like a fun mini-game!
  10. Develop Estimation Skills for Quick Checks - Use estimation as your math radar: preview answers by rounding, like 49 × 6 ≈ 50 × 6 = 300, then confirm the real product (294) is in the right ballpark.
