Division facts for 6, 7, 8, 9: true or false?

Key Notes :

Understanding Division Facts

• Division is the process of splitting a number into equal parts.
• Example: 18 ÷ 6 = 3 means 18 is divided into 6 equal groups, each containing 3.
• Division facts help in quick calculations and problem-solving.

Division Facts for 6, 7, 8, and 9

Divisibility by 6: A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by both 2 and 3.

• Example: 12 ÷ 6 = 2 (True)

Divisibility by 7: 7 doesn’t have simple divisibility rules; division must be done directly.

• Example: 21 ÷ 7 = 3 (True)

Divisibility by 8: A number is divisible by 8 if the last three digits form a number divisible by 8.

• Example: 24 ÷ 8 = 3 (True)

Divisibility by 9: A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 9.

• Example: 81 ÷ 9 = 9 (True)

True or False Questions

Check if division sentences are correct by performing the division.

Example statements:

• 42 ÷ 7 = 6 → (True) ✅
• 54 ÷ 9 = 8 → (False) ❌ (Correct answer: 54 ÷ 9 = 6)
• 64 ÷ 8 = 7 → (True) ✅
• 36 ÷ 6 = 5 → (False) ❌ (Correct answer: 36 ÷ 6 = 6)

Strategies to Check Answers

• Use multiplication: Reverse check using multiplication (e.g., 7 × 6 = 42 confirms 42 ÷ 7 = 6).
• Use repeated subtraction: Subtract the divisor repeatedly until reaching 0.
• Use skip counting: Count in multiples to see if the number is reached exactly.

Importance of Learning Division Facts

• Helps in solving real-life problems.
• Makes multiplication and division quicker and easier.
• Builds confidence in math calculations.
