Maths: division by 7

We thought of new ways of dividing by 7. We tried to use mental methods, because that will teach us much more than simply repeating old-fashioned written methods in a robotic way that involves no understanding. We split the numbers up into parts, using our knowledge of the 7x table to help us. You can find an explanation on the board above.

At home please do sheet 50, which has a mixture of inverse tables questions that involve division. Enjoy your homework and check your answers carefully.
