The multiplication statement 2 multiplied by 4 = 8 can be written in terms of division: 8 divided by 4 = 2.

If you start with 2 and multiply by 4, then to get back to where you started, you divide by 4.

10. Write each multiplication in terms of division.

a) Since 1 multiplied by 0 = 0, then 0 divided by 0 =_______ .

b) Since 2multiplied by 0 = 0, then0 divided by 0=.

c) Since 3 multiplied by 0 = 0, then0 divided by 0 =.

d) Since 4 muliplied by 0 = 0, then0 divided by 0 =.

The result of an operation needs to have exactly one answer. Example: 15 divided by 3 = 5

Since 0 divided by 0 can have many answers, mathematicians have decided not to define it at all!

Investigating Equations

Look at these equations: 2 multiplied by 3 = 3 plus 3 2 multiplied by 0 = 0 plus 0 2 multiplied by 7 = 7 plus 7 2 multipledby 26 = 26 plus 26
The equations are all different, but they have the same form. They all look like this: 2 multiplied by a = a plus a

for some number a. The letter a is a variable — it represents a number.

1. Replace the number that changes in each group of equations with the variable m.
a) 5 muliplied by 3 div edby 3 = 5 3 =7
b) 7 plus 3 minus c) 7 plus 3 minus
3=7

7 multipledby 3 divided by 3 = 7 18 plus 3 3 = 18


minus 7 plus 4 minus 4=7

12 multipledby 3 divided by 3 = 12 25 plus 3 3 = 25


minus 7 plus 12 minus 12 = 7

m multiplied by 3 divided by 3 = m

d) 16 div eby 2 multiplied by2 = 16 e) 9 5 plus 5 = 9


minus f) 9 minus 5 plus 5 = 9

12 divided by 2 multipledby 2 = 12 15 5 plus 5 = 15


minus 9 minus
0 plus 0 = 9

7 divided by 2 multipledby 2 = 7 21 minus 5 plus 5 = 21 9 minus 7 plus 7 = 9

2. Sara notices that these equations have the same right side:

7 multiplied by 3 divided by 3 =7
7 multiplied by 5 divided by 5=7
7 multiplied by 200 divided by 200 = 7

a) Sara thinks that 7 multipledby a div eby a = 7 will be true for any number a. Is she correct?
Hint: Are there any numbers that you are not allowed to divide by?
b) Choose a number a that you think will make 7multiplied by a divided by d = 7 true.
a = blank Check your answer.

3. Calculate each expression if a = 12 and b = 3.


a) a minus b = 12 minus b) a plus b = 12 plus 3

3 =9

4. Circle two expressions from Question 3 that have the same answer.
Check in your notebook whether they will also have the same answer when...
a) a = 4 and b = 7 b) your choice: a = blank and b = blank

5. Write an equation to show that the two expressions you circled in Question 4 always
have the same answer. blank = blank
To verily that an equation is true, calculate both sides and make sure they both equal the same number.

6. Verify that each equation is true for a = 3 and b = 5.

a) a multipledby (b plus 2) = a multipledby b plus a multipledby 2 b) a multipledby (b plus 3) = a multiplied by b plus a multiplied by 3
3 multiplied by (5 plus 2) 3 multiplied by 5 plus 3 multiplied by 2
= 3 multiplied by 7 = 15 plus 6
= 21 = 21

c) a multiplied by (b plus 4) = amultipledby b plus a multiplied by 4 d) a multiplied by (b plus 5) = a multiplied by b plus a multiplied by 5e) a multiplied by (b plus 6) = a multiplied by b plus a multipledby6.

7. All equations in Question 6 look like this: a multiplied by (b plus c) = a multiplied by b plus a multiplied by c.
This is an equation in 3 variables.
a) In Question 6 c), you used: a = 3 , b= 5 , and c = 4
b) In Question 6 d), you used: a =________ , b =, and c =.
c) In Question 6 e), you used: a =________ , b =, and c =.

8. Use a multiplied by (b plus c) = a multipledby b plus a multipledby c to find what values a, b, and c have in these equations.
a) 5 multipledby (2 plus 7) = 5 multiplied by 2 plus 5 multiplied by 7 ;a=, b =, c =,

b) 3 multipledby (2 plus 5) = 3 multiplied by 2 plus 3 multipledby 5; a=, b =, c=;

c) 2 multipledby (6 plus 7) = 2 multiplied by 6 plus 2 multiplied by 7; a=, b =, c =,


d) 4 multipledby (12 plus 83) = 4 multiplied by 12 plus 4 multiplied by 83; a=, b =, c=,

9. Use a multiplied by (b plus c) = a multipledby b plus a multipledby c to finish writing the equations.

a) 3 multiplied by (5 plus 1) = 3 multiplied by blank plus 3 multiplied by blank b) 4 multiplied

by (2 plus 6) = blank multiplied by 2 plua blank multiplied by 6 c) 7 multiplied by (0 plus 3)


= d) 0 multiplied by ( 3plus 4) = e) 9 multiplied by (2 plus 7) = f) 10 multiplied by (1 plus 1) =

10. Calculate (a plus b) multiplied by c and a multiplied c plus b multiplied by c for the values of a, b, and c given.
a) a = 3, b = 5, c = 4 b) a = 2 , b = 3, c = 1 c) a = 5, b = 2, c = 10

What do you notice about your answers? Write an equation using the variables a, b, and c.

11. Use the equation from Question 10 to fill in the blanks.


a) In the expression (5 plus 3) multiplied by6 b) In the expression, (8 plus 5) multiplied by 3
a= 5 b = 3 c= 6 a= b= c=

So (5 plus 3) multiplied by 6 = blank multipkied by 6 plus blank multiplied by 6. So (8 plus 5) multipledby 3 = 8 multiplied by blank plus 5 multiplied by blank

c) In the expression (7 plus 2) multiplied by 9 d) In the expression, (3 plus 2) multipledby 0


a= b= c= a= b= c =
So (7 plus 2) multipledby 9 = So (3 plus 2) multipledby 0 =

Organized Search

1 . Alana uses a chart to find all the factors of 10 by pairing up numbers that multiply
to give 10. She lists numbers 1 to 10 in the 1st column, and the number you multiply
each one by to get 10 in the 2nd column. If there is no number that multiplies to 10,
she leaves the box in the 2nd column blank.

a) Why did Alana not list any 1 s number greater than 10?

b) Why did Alana not list 0 as a 1st number?

2. Use Alana's method to find all the pairs of numbers that multiply to give the
number in bold.

a) 6 b) 8 c) 9

3. Cross out the pairs of numbers that are repeated in Question 2.

4. Connor makes a chart to list all the factors of 24. He does not want to write
and check all the numbers from 1 to 24. He starts his list as shown.

a) Connor knows that 6 multipledby 4 = 24. He thinks that if 7 multiplied by blank = 24, then blank
must be less than 4. Explain his thinking.

b) Explain why Connor's list is complete.

5. Connor used this chart to help him identify pairs that multiply to 16. Why did he
know that his search was complete as soon as he found a pair with both numbers
the same?
To list all the factors of a given number, (the pairs of numbers that multiply to give that number),
stop when you get a number that is already part of a pair.
