📚 Quick Study Guide
- 🔢 A fact family is a set of related multiplication and division equations that use the same numbers.
- ✖️ Multiplication and division are inverse operations, meaning they undo each other.
- 💡 For a fact family involving numbers $a$, $b$, and $c$, where $a \times b = c$, the related facts are: $a \times b = c$, $b \times a = c$, $c \div a = b$, and $c \div b = a$.
- ➕ Remember that order matters in division and subtraction, but not in multiplication and addition.
- 📝 Understanding fact families helps build number sense and makes problem-solving faster.

-
What fact is related to $3 \times 4 = 12$ in the same fact family?
- $12 + 3 = 15$
- $4 \times 2 = 8$
- $12 \div 4 = 3$
- $3 + 4 = 7$
-
Which equation is NOT part of the fact family for 2, 5, and 10?
- $2 \times 5 = 10$
- $5 \times 2 = 10$
- $10 \div 5 = 2$
- $10 \times 2 = 20$
-
What division fact is related to $6 \times 7 = 42$?
- $42 \times 7 = 6$
- $6 + 7 = 13$
- $42 \div 6 = 7$
- $7 \div 42 = 6$
-
Which number completes the fact family: __ \times 8 = 24, 8 \times __ = 24, 24 \div 8 = __, 24 \div __ = 8?
- 2
- 3
- 4
- 5
-
Which multiplication fact belongs to the same fact family as $15 \div 3 = 5$?
- $15 \times 3 = 45$
- $3 \times 5 = 15$
- $5 + 3 = 8$
- $15 \div 5 = 3$
-
What is the missing number: $9 \times 4 = 36$, $4 \times 9 = 36$, $36 \div 4 = $ __, $36 \div 9 = $ __?
- 3
- 4
- 5
- 9
-
Which of the following is NOT a fact family?
- $2 \times 6 = 12$, $6 \times 2 = 12$, $12 \div 6 = 2$, $12 \div 2 = 6$
- $3 \times 8 = 24$, $8 \times 3 = 24$, $24 \div 3 = 8$, $24 \div 8 = 3$
- $4 \times 5 = 20$, $5 \times 4 = 20$, $20 \div 5 = 4$, $20 \div 4 = 5$
- $1 \times 9 = 10$, $9 \times 1 = 10$, $10 \div 1 = 10$, $10 \div 10 = 1$
