About this worksheet
Each worksheet has 12 problems completing a multiplication or division using its inverse.
The fact family worksheets on this site all use whole numbers, which is the grade 3 idea. The grade 6 idea is that the same relationship survives when a fraction is involved, and that is what makes dividing by a fraction believable - 3 divided by one fourth is 12 because 12 fourths make 3. The two equations are printed together with one number missing, so the student has to work out which number the relationship puts where rather than copying and rearranging. Sheets can be customized, turned into flash cards, or assigned for online learning.
