Complete Fact Family Circles (1)

EASYTEACHING.NET

Overview:

A worksheet where students arrange given numbers correctly in fact family triangles and write the matching equations. Designed for middle years students.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify the relationship between multiplication and division in fact families.
  • Correctly organise numbers in MAD (multiplication and division) triangles.
  • Strengthen fluency in recalling multiplication and division facts.

How the Activity Works:

Students are provided with three numbers—a product and two factors. They must correctly place these numbers in the fact family triangle and then write the corresponding fact family equations. Each fact family consists of two multiplication and two division equations. For example, given 4, 5, and 20, students complete: 4×5=20, 5×4=20, 20÷4=5, and 20÷5=4. This activity reinforces number relationships and supports fact fluency.
