Section A – Answers (1 mark each)

1. $6 \times 7 = 42$
Teaching note: From the 6 or 7 times table: $6 \times 7$ means 6 groups of 7, which is 42.

2. $9 \times 8 = 72$
Teaching note: 9 times 8 equals 72 (recall table).

3. $45 \div 5 = 9$
Teaching note: Division is the opposite of multiplication. $5 \times 9 = 45$, so $45 \div 5 = 9$.

4. $8 \times 9 = 72$
Teaching note: Same product as Q2 by commutativity.

5. $63 \div 9 = 7$
Teaching note: $9 \times 7 = 63$, so quotient is 7.

6. $7 \times 6 = 42$
Teaching note: Same as Q1.

7. $32 \div 4 = 8$
Teaching note: $4 \times 8 = 32$.

8. $5 \times 9 = 45$
Teaching note: 5 groups of 9 = 45.

9. $54 \div 6 = 9$
Teaching note: $6 \times 9 = 54$.

10. $4 \times 8 = 32$
Teaching note: 4 groups of 8 = 32.
