Multiplication of numbers. Multiplication and division are reciprocal actions

Multiplication is an arithmetic operation, in which the first number is repeated as a summand as many times as the second number shows.

A number that is repeated as a term is called multiplicable (it is multiplied), the number that shows how many times the term is repeated is called multiplier... The number obtained as a result of multiplication is called work.

For example, multiply natural number 2 for a natural number 5 means finding the sum of five terms, each of which is equal to 2:

2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 10

In this example, we find the sum by ordinary addition. But when the number of identical terms is large, finding the sum by adding all the terms becomes too tedious.

To write multiplication, use the × (oblique cross) or · (dot) sign. It is placed between the multiplier and the multiplier, with the multiplier being written to the left of the multiplication sign, and the multiplier to the right. For example, writing 2 · 5 means that the number 2 is multiplied by the number 5. To the right of the multiplication record, put the \u003d (equal) sign, after which the multiplication result is written. Thus, the complete record of multiplication looks like this:

This entry reads like this: the product of two and five is ten, or two times five is ten.

So we can see that multiplication is simply short form recording the addition of the same terms.

Multiplication test

To test multiplication, you can divide the product by a factor. If the result of division is a number equal to the multiplication, then the multiplication is correct.

Consider the expression:

where 4 is the multiplier, 3 is the multiplier, and 12 is the product. Now let's check the multiplication by dividing the product by a factor.

All other division tables are obtained in a similar way.

METHODS OF REMEMBERING THE TABLE OF DIVISION

Techniques for storing tabular division cases are associated with methods of obtaining a division table from the corresponding tabular multiplication cases.

1. Reception associated with the meaning of the action of division

With small values \u200b\u200bof the dividend and divisor, the child can either perform objective actions to directly obtain the result of the division, or perform these actions mentally, or use a finger model.

For example: 10 flower pots were placed equally on two windows. How many pots are there on each window?

To get the result, the child can use any of the above models.

For large values \u200b\u200bof the dividend and divisor, this technique is inconvenient. For example: 72 pots of flowers were placed on 8 windows. How many pots are there on each window?

Finding a result using a subject model is inconvenient in this case.

2. The trick associated with the rule of interconnection of the components of multiplication and division

In this case, the child is guided. To memorize an interconnected triplet of cases, for example:

If the child manages to remember well one of these cases (usually the basic one is the case of multiplication) or he can get it using any of the methods of memorizing the multiplication table, then using the rule “if the product is divided by one of the factors, then the second factor will be obtained”, easily get the second and third table cases.

№ 13 Methodology for studying the technique of dividing a two-digit number by a single-digit number

When studying the technique of dividing a two-digit number by a single-digit number, use the rule of dividing the sum by the number. Groups of examples are considered:

1) 46: 2 \u003d "(40 + 6): 2 \u003d 40: 2 + -" 6: 2 \u003d 20 + 3 \u003d 23 (replace the dividend with the sum of the digit terms)

2) 50: 2 \u003d (40 + 10): 2 \u003d 40: 2 + 10: 2 \u003d 20 + 5 \u003d 25 (the dividend is replaced by the sum of convenient terms - round numbers)

3) 72: 6 \u003d (60 + 12): 6 \u003d 60: 6+ 12: 6 \u003d 10 + 2 \u003d 12 (the dividend is replaced by the sum of two numbers: a round number and a two-digit number)

In all examples, these terms will be convenient if, when dividing them by a given divisor, the bit terms of the quotient are obtained.

In the preparatory period, exercises are used: select round numbers up to 100 that are divisible by 2 (10, 20, 40, 60, 80), by 3 (30, 60, 90), by 4 (40, 80), etc.; represent in different ways the numbers as the sum of two terms, each of which is divisible by given number without a remainder: 24 can be replaced by a sum, each term of which is divisible by 2: 20 + 4, 12 + 12, 10 + 14, etc .; solve in different ways examples of the form: (18 + 45): 9.



After the preparatory work, examples of three groups are considered, with great attention being paid to replacing the dividend with the sum of convenient terms and choosing the most convenient method:

42: 3= (30+12) : 3=30: 3+12: 3= 14

42:3=(27+15) :3=27: 3+15: 3=14 42:3= (24+1&) : 3 = 24: 3+18:3=14

42: 3 \u003d (36 + 6): 3 \u003d 36: 3 + 6: 3 \u003d 14, etc.

The first method can be attributed to the most convenient way, since when dividing the convenient terms (30 and 12), we get the bit terms of the quotient (10 + 4 \u003d 14).

Examples of the type: 96: 4 are difficult. In such cases, it is advisable to replace the dividend with the sum of convenient terms, the first of which expresses the largest number of tens, divisible by the divisor: 96: 4 \u003d (80 + 16): 4.

1. Bit composition of the number

2.property of dividing a sum by a number

3. Division of a number ending in 0

4. Tabular division cases

5. "Convenient" number composition.

Division with remainder.

Division with remainder is studied in grade II after completing work on out-of-table cases of multiplication and division.

Working on division with a remainder within 100 expands students' knowledge of the action of division, creates new conditions for applying knowledge of the tabular results of multiplication and division, for applying computational techniques for non-tabular multiplication and division, and also prepares students in a timely manner for the study of written division techniques.

A feature of division with a remainder in comparison with actions known to children is the fact that here, using two given numbers - the dividend and the divisor - two numbers are found: the quotient and the remainder.

In their experience, children have repeatedly encountered cases of division with a remainder, performing division of objects (sweets, apples, nuts, etc.). Therefore, when studying division with a remainder, it is important to rely on this experience of children and at the same time enrich it. It is useful to start by solving vital practical problems. For example: “Give 15 notebooks to pupils, 2 notebooks to each. How many students received notebooks and how many notebooks are left? "



Pupils distribute, lay out objects and verbally answer the questions posed.

Along with these tasks, work is carried out with didactic material and with pictures.

We divide 14 circles by 3 circles. How many times are 3 mugs in 14 mugs? (4 times.) How many circles are left? (2.) A division record with a remainder is introduced: 14: 3 \u003d 4 (remaining 2). Pupils solve several similar examples and problems using objects or pictures. Let's take the problem: "" Mom brought 11 apples and distributed them to the children, 2 apples each. How many children received these apples and how many apples are left? " Pupils solve the problem using circles.

The solution and answer to the problem are written as follows-11: 2 \u003d 5 (rest. 1).

Answer: 5 children and 1 apple remains.

Then the relationship between the divisor and the remainder is revealed, that is, the students establish: if division results in a remainder, then it is always less than the divisor. To do this, first solve examples of dividing consecutive numbers by 2, then by 3 (4, 5). For instance:

10:2=5 12:3 = 4 16:4 = 4
11: 2 \u003d 5 (rest 1) 13: 3 \u003d 4 (rest 1) 17: 4 \u003d 4 (rest 1)
12: 2 \u003d 6 14: 3 \u003d 4 (rest 2) 18: 4 \u003d 4 (rest 2)

13: 2 \u003d 6 (rest 1) 15: 3 \u003d 5 19: 4 \u003d 4 (rest 3)

Students compare the remainder with the divisor and notice that when divided by 2, the remainder is only 1 and cannot be 2 (3, 4, etc.). In the same way, it turns out that when dividing by 3, the remainder can be 1 or 2, when dividing by 4, only numbers 1, 2, 3, etc. Comparing the remainder and the divisor, the children conclude that the remainder is always less than the divisor.

To assimilate this relationship, it is advisable to offer exercises similar to the following:

What numbers can be obtained in the remainder when dividing by 5, 7, 10? How many different residuals can there be when divided by 8, 11, 14? What is the largest remainder that can be obtained by dividing by 9, 15, 18? Can the remainder be 8, 3, 10 when dividing by 7?

To prepare students to master the technique of division with remainder, it is useful to offer the following tasks:

What numbers from 6 to 60 are divisible by 6, 7, 9 without a remainder? What is the smaller number closest to 47 (52, 61) that is divisible by 8, 9, 6 without a remainder?

Revealing the general method of division with remainder, it is better to take examples in pairs: one of them for division without remainder, and the other for division with remainder, but the examples must have the same divisors and quotients.

Further, examples of division with remainder are solved without an example helper. - Let 37 be divided by 8. The student must learn the following reasoning: “37 by 8 is not divisible without a remainder. The largest number that is less than 37 and divisible by 8 without a remainder, 32. 32 divided by 8 is 4; from 37 we subtract 32, we get 5, the remainder is 5. So, 37 divided by 8, we get 4 and the remainder is 5 ".

The skill of division with a remainder is developed as a result of training, so it is necessary to include more examples of division with a remainder both in oral exercises and in written work.

Performing division with remainder, students sometimes get a remainder greater than the divisor, for example: 47: 5 \u003d 8 (remainder 7). To prevent such errors, it is useful to offer children incorrectly solved examples, let them find the error, explain the reason for its occurrence and solve the example correctly.

1. choose a number close to the dividend, which is less than it and is divisible without a remainder;

2. split this number;

3. find the remainder;

4. check the remainder, whether it is less than the divisor;

5.write an example

In II and III grades it is necessary to include as many different exercises as possible for all the cases of multiplication and division studied: examples in one and several actions, comparison of expressions, filling out tables, solving equations, etc.

№ 14. Composite task concept.

A compound task includes a number of simple tasks that are interconnected in such a way that the desired ones for some simple tasks serve as data for others. Solving a compound problem is reduced to breaking it down into a number of simple problems and solving them sequentially. In this way, to solve a complex problem, it is necessary to establish a number of connections between the data and the desired one, in accordance with which to select and then perform arithmetic operations.

In the solution of a composite problem, a significantly new thing has appeared in comparison with the solution of a simple problem: here not one connection is established, but several, in accordance with which arithmetic operations are selected. Therefore, special work is carried out to familiarize children with a compound problem, as well as to form their skills to solve compound problems.

Preparatory work to familiarize yourself with compound tasks should help students understand the main difference between a compound problem and a simple one - it cannot be solved immediately, that is, in one action, but for the solution it is necessary to isolate simple tasksby establishing the appropriate links between the data and the desired one. For this purpose, special Exercises are provided.

Task 2. How many strawberries? How many cherries? Write it down using multiplication. 3 5 \u003d 15 (h.); 3 6 \u003d 18 (in.).

60: 2 + 36 \u003d 30 + 36 \u003d 66 20 2 + 48 \u003d 40 + 48 \u003d 88

34 2 - 26 \u003d 68 - 26 \u003d 42 9 3 + 18 \u003d 27 + 18 \u003d 45

Task 7. Make equalities from the numbers 2, 8 and 16. And let your deskmate make such equalities from the numbers 6, 3 and 18.

2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 16 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 18

8 + 8 = 16 6 + 6 + 6 = 18

2 8 \u003d 16 3 6 \u003d 18

8 2 \u003d 16 6 3 \u003d 18
