Missing Pieces- Level 1
In this worksheet, students fill in the missing number to make the number sentences true. The questions are straight-forward and only rely on tables facts.
This worksheet is a part of a larger unit where students learn a variety of prealgebra skills, including equivalent equations and inverse operations, to solve multiplication and division problems with missing digits.

Learning goals
- We are learning to recognise and explain the connection between multiplication and division as inverse operations and use this to develop families of number facts.
- We are learning to find unknown quantities in number sentences involving multiplication and division, using the properties of numbers and operations.
- We are learning to find unknown quantities in number sentences involving multiplication and division and identify equivalent number sentences involving multiplication and division.
- We are learning to create and use algorithms using multiple steps to experiment with factors, multiples and divisibility and identify and describe emerging patterns.
