Multiplication and Division Quiz - Mental Division
Maths Resource Description
The Year 5 Multiplication and Division Quiz is designed to test students' ability to perform mental division by drawing upon their knowledge of multiplication and division facts. The quiz comprises ten questions, each requiring the student to divide a given number by another, or to find the missing divisor in a division equation that results in a known quotient. For example, the first question asks students to divide 360 by 12, while the fourth question presents a division equation where the divisor is the unknown variable that results in the quotient of 80 when 560 is divided.
The quiz continues with a variety of division challenges that include dividing by single and double-digit numbers as well as identifying the missing number in a division equation. Questions range from straightforward divisions such as 900 divided by 10, to more complex calculations like 236 divided by 4. The aim is to encourage quick mental calculations. The answers are provided at the end, allowing students to check their work. For instance, the answer to the first question is 30, and the missing divisor in the seventh question is 7. This quiz is an excellent tool for reinforcing division skills and assessing students' proficiency in mental arithmetic.
