Worksheet Overview

We can use multiplication tables to solve division problems.

Example

blue flower

A flower has 5 petals.

A bunch of these flowers have 55 petals between them.

How many flowers are in the bunch?

Answer

We need to think of where 55 comes in the 5 times table.

55 ÷ 5 = 11

11 flowers will have 55 petals, so there are 11 flowers in the bunch.
