The basic idea of multiplication is repeated addition, adding a number to itself multiple times. It can also be thought of as making a number ___ times the size.

To divide a number or quantity is to split it into equal parts or groups.

Use knowledge of the 3 and 6 times tables to solve problems

Maths

Explain the relationship between multiples of three and six

Use knowledge of the relationships between the 3 and 6 times tables to solve problems

Use the divisibility rules to find multiples of 3

Use divisibility rules for multiples of 6

 In this unit pupils explain the relationship between multiples of 3 and of 6 and use this relationship and tests of divisibility to solve problems. In the future unit pupils will explain the relationship between multiples of 3 and multiples of 9 and use it to solve problems

In the prior unit pupils represented counting in 3s as the 3x table explaining the relationship between adjacent multiples of 3 and represented counting in 6s as the 6x table explaining the relationship between adjacent multiples of 6.  In this unit pupils explain the relationship between multiples of 3 and of 6 and use this relationship and tests of divisibility to solve problems.

In this unit pupils will explain the relationship between multiples of 3 and of 6. They will use this relationship and tests of divisibility for the 3- and 6-times tables to solve problems.

Relationship between the 3 and 6 times tables and tests of divisibility

Look at this array and complete the sentence. The array shows 3 groups of 2 and it also shows {{ }} group(s) of 6

Match the parts of the sentence to make them correct.

Match the calculations showing multiples of 3 with the equivalent multiples of 6

Andeep has been collecting packs of guinea cards. They come in packs of 3  He has collected 9 packets and gave away 3 packets. How many cards has he collected altogether? {{ }} cards

Izzy is splitting her 36 eggs into boxes of six. She then gives away 2 boxes two Andeep. How many boxes will she have altogether? {{ }} boxes

Which numbers are multiples of both 3 and 6?

Match the start and end of the sentences to make them correct.

Match the groups of 3 to the equal groups of 6

If you {{ }} a multiple of 6 then you get a multiple of 3
