Meet the Math Facts: Multiplication & Division

Understanding 5 x 7 = 35

Today, we’re going to learn about a fun math fact: 5 times 7 equals 35! Multiplication is like adding the same number over and over again. Let’s see how it works with 5 and 7.

What Does 5 x 7 Mean?

When we say 5 times 7, it means we are adding the number 7 together five times. Let’s count it out:

  • 7 + 7 = 14
  • 14 + 7 = 21
  • 21 + 7 = 28
  • 28 + 7 = 35

So, 5 times 7 equals 35! Isn’t that cool?

Counting by Sevens

Another way to understand this is by counting by sevens. Let’s count together:

  • 7
  • 14
  • 21
  • 28
  • 35

When we reach 35, we’ve counted five sevens. That’s why 5 times 7 equals 35!

Practice Makes Perfect

Now that you know how to multiply 5 by 7, try practicing with other numbers. You can use this method to learn other multiplication facts too. Remember, practice makes perfect!

Fun Fact

Did you know that multiplication is like a shortcut for addition? Instead of adding the same number over and over, you can multiply to get the answer faster!

Keep practicing, and soon you’ll be a multiplication master!

  • Can you think of a time when you used multiplication or addition in your daily life? Maybe when sharing toys or snacks with friends? How did it help you?
  • Imagine you have 5 groups of 7 candies. How would you share them with your friends? Can you come up with a fun story about how you would divide them?
  • What other numbers do you think would be fun to multiply together? Why do you think multiplication is a helpful tool in math?
  1. Build a Multiplication Tower: Gather some building blocks or LEGO pieces. Use them to create a tower that represents 5 x 7. Start by stacking 7 blocks in one row. Then, add another row of 7 blocks on top, and continue until you have 5 rows. Count all the blocks together to see if you reach 35. This will help you visualize multiplication as repeated addition!

  2. Sevens Scavenger Hunt: Go on a scavenger hunt around your home or classroom to find groups of 7 items. For example, you might find 7 pencils, 7 books, or 7 toy cars. Once you have 5 groups of 7 items, count them all together to see if you have 35 items in total. This activity will help you understand how multiplication works in real life.

  3. Draw and Discover: Draw a picture that shows 5 groups of 7 objects, like stars, apples, or smiley faces. Count each group and then add them all together to see if you get 35. You can also try drawing different objects for other multiplication facts you want to learn. This will make learning multiplication fun and creative!
