1. Fill in the blanks with the convenient number:
5 x 9 = 45
6 x 4 = 24
4 x 8 = 32
3 x 7 = 21
1 x 8 = 8
5 x 5 = 25
2. In each star, underline the largest product:
Star 1: 4 x 5 (20) > 3 x 2 (6)
Star 2: 4 x 8 (32) > 3 x 9 (27)
Star 3: 1 x 10 (10) > 3 x 0 (0)
Star 4: 5 x 7 (35) > 4 x 6 (24)
3. Write each multiplication sentence as a repeated addition sentence:
A) 5 x 3 = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 15
B) 2 x 6 = 6 + 6 = 12
C) 4 x 7 = 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 28
D) 3 x 8 = 8 + 8 + 8 = 24
4. Use the appropriate sign >, < or =:
2 x 5 = 1 x 10
3 x 5 > 2 x 3
2 x 9 < 5 x 6
4 x 4 > 3 x 3
5. Find the product, and then arrange in increasing:
5 x 8 = 40
4 x 2 = 8
5 x 11 = 55
4 x 12 = 48
8 < 40 < 48 < 55
