Primary 1 Mathematics Quiz - Multiplication Division: Answer Key

Total Marks: 20

Section A: Multiplication (Questions 1 - 5)

Question 1

Answer: Addition: 2 + 2 + 2 = 6; Multiplication: 3 × 2 = 6 Marks: 1

Teaching Notes:

  • The picture shows 3 groups of 2 apples.
  • Addition sentence: Count the apples in each group and add them: 2 + 2 + 2 = 6.
  • Multiplication sentence: We have 3 groups, and each group has 2 apples. So we write 3 × 2 = 6.
  • Key idea: Multiplication is repeated addition. "3 groups of 2" is the same as "2 + 2 + 2".

Marking Notes:

  • Award 1 mark for both correct sentences. If only one is correct, award ½ mark.

Question 2

Answer: 10 Marks: 1

Teaching Notes:

  • 5 × 2 means "5 groups of 2" or "2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2".
  • Counting: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.
  • So 5 × 2 = 10.

Question 3

Answer: 12 biscuits Marks: 1

Teaching Notes:

  • There are 4 plates, and each plate has 3 biscuits.
  • This is "4 groups of 3".
  • Multiplication: 4 × 3 = 12.
  • Repeated addition: 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12.
  • Answer: 12 biscuits.

Marking Notes:

  • Award 1 mark for the correct final answer. Working shown is encouraged but not required for the mark.

Question 4

Answer: (B) 5 + 5 + 5 Marks: 1

Teaching Notes:

  • 3 × 5 means "3 groups of 5".
  • Repeated addition: 5 + 5 + 5.
  • Option (A) is 3 + 5 which is only one group of 3 and one group of 5.
  • Option (C) is 3 + 3 + 5 which is not equal groups.
  • Option (D) is 5 × 5 which is "5 groups of 5".

Question 5

Answer: 2 Marks: 1

Teaching Notes:

  • 2 × 6 means "2 groups of 6" = 6 + 6 = 12.
  • 6 × 2 means "6 groups of 2" = 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 12.
  • Both equal 12, so the missing number is 2.
  • Key idea: Multiplication can be done in any order (commutative property). 2 × 6 = 6 × 2.

Section B: Division (Questions 6 - 10)

Question 6

Answer: 4 sweets Marks: 1

Teaching Notes:

  • 12 sweets shared equally among 3 children.
