Show the repeated addition for the following multiplication sentence: 3 x 5= 6 x 2= 9x 3= 2 x 10= 4 x 8=
Example: 20 ÷ 4 = ____ 20- 4 - 4 - 4- 4- 4=0 How many times did we subtract 4 until we have 0? 5 So 20 ÷ 4 = 5 Example: 20 ÷ 5= ____ 20 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 = 0 How many times we subtracted 5 until 0? 4 So 20 ÷ 5 = 4 Division as Repeated Subtraction
Example : 20 ÷ 5 = 4 20 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 = Correct: 20- 5 = 15 wrong: 20- 4 =16 15- 5 = 10 16- 4= 12 10- 5 = 5 12- 4 = 8 5- 5 = 0 8- 4 = 4 4-4 = 0 In repeated subtraction (illustrating division), the subtrahend is the divisor, not the quotient.
