Write & Solve Multiplication

and Division Equations​

By Ms. Carnes, 6th grade math teacher

​Math Objective  

   Students will be able to:

Explain and show how to solve a multiplication and division equation.​Math Standards​

•  Write and solve an equation in the form of x + p =q and px=q for cases in which p, q, and x are all non-negative rational numbers to solve real-world and mathematical problems. 6.EE.19

• Evaluate expressions (which may include absolute value and whole number exponents) with respect to order of operations. 6.EE.15d

• Interpret the solution of an equation in the context of the 

​ problem. 6.EE.19a

​

When solving multiplication and division equations, there are two ideas that need to be involved...

​2nd Idea

There needs to be an inverse relationship

​1st Idea

Multiplication undergoes division.

Division undergoes multiplication.​

​

Inverse means the opposite of something

​Inverse Relationship

​Solving

Multiplication

and

Division

Equations

The same value can be multiplied or divided from both sides of an equation and the equality is maintained.
