Explain the relationship between the multiples of 2, 4 and 8

Maths

In this unit pupils will solve multiplication and division problems using knowledge of the scaling relationship between the 2x 4x 8x tables. In the future unit pupils will  represent counting in 3s as the 3x table explaining the relationship between adjacent multiples 3 and represent counting in sixes as the 6x table explaining the relationship between adjacent multiples of 6

In the prior unit pupils doubled and halved 2 digit numbers. They learned to use times table facts to find the quotient for 2x 5x 10x tables. In this unit pupils will solve multiplication and division problems using knowledge of the scaling relationships between the 2x 4x 8x tables.

2, 4 and 8 times tables: using times tables to solve problems

True or false. Products in the 8 times table are also in the 4 and 2 times tables.

Which of these numbers are multiples of 2 and 4 and 8?

Look at this array. How many of each group does it show?

Look at the bar model. What is the missing number from the top bar?

Use the array to match the factors for the product of 32.

Match the number of multiples of 8 that are equivalent to the multiples of 4

Match the answers to the equations. Remember that when one factor halves, the product also halves.

Match the multiples of 4 and multiples of 8 that give the same product.

When solving word problems, which of these words mean 'multiply'?

If you read the words, 'halve' and 'split' in a word problem, you would need to {{ }}. 

Look at the image. If each square was replaced by an octagon, how many sides would the shapes have in total? {{ }} sides.
