Twenty problems a sheet, multiplication and division mixed, each with a box for the missing number: 6 x ___ = 42, or ___ ÷ 3 = 8. The blank alternates between the two operands so the page keeps switching which way the arithmetic has to run.
This is the multiplication counterpart of missing addends. A student who knows 6 x 7 = 42 but hesitates on 6 x ___ = 42 is treating division as unrelated rote rather than as multiplication undone. Every division problem here is built from a multiplication fact, so the missing number is always whole.
The number missing from a multiplication sentence - the box in 6 x ___ = 42. Finding it is the division 42 / 6, which is why practising it this way ties the two operations together.
Third and fourth grade, as the times tables become automatic and division is introduced as their inverse.
Yes. Each one is generated from a whole multiplication fact, so the missing number is always a whole number with no remainder.
Yes. Turn on Include Answer Pages and every equation prints complete, with the number from the box filled in.
