Answer 1

you know ur fact family and multiplication
5x10=50
10x5=50
when it comes to division
50/10=5
u already know the answer

Answer 2

Fact families and multiplication helps to divide . In any division problem, we use its divisor and check whether we get the dividend by multiplying a number to divisior.

For example:- Consider a division problem
`40/5`

Here, Dividend= 40 and divisor = 5

Now, search the fact families of 5 which give 40 as an answer, we get

`5*8=40\ or\ 8*5=40`

`\\\Rightarrow\ 40/5=8`

we can check our answer by multiplying divisor to the answer

`5*8=40`
