Commutative Multiplication

Mathematics · Multiplication & Division · conceptual

Understand and apply the commutative property of multiplication and recognise that division is not commutative

What mastery looks like

  • Explain that 3 × 5 = 5 × 3 and show this with an array rotated
  • Use commutativity to choose the easier calculation
  • Demonstrate that 12 ÷ 3 ≠ 3 ÷ 12

Check your understanding

Does Commutative Multiplication know that 4 × 7 gives the same answer as 7 × 4 — so they can choose whichever order is easier to remember from their times tables?
