Fascinating Fact:

Every human has about one hundred thousand hairs on their head, so in a class of thirty, there are roughly three million chances of a bad hair day.

In 11 Plus Maths, multiplication and division become more complex as problems involve patterns, scaling, and reasoning. These skills help pupils handle larger numbers and apply logical steps in unfamiliar contexts.

What is the correct answer to the given calculation?
27.83 x 105 = ?

2,922.15

2,783

3,162.83

3,227

To multiply a number by 105, first multiply the number by 10 and halve it, then multiply the original number by 100 and add your two answers together:
27.83 x 5 = (27.83 x 10) ÷ 2 = 278.3 ÷ 2 = 139.15
27.83 x 100 = 2,783
2,783 + 139.15 = 2,922.15

2,174.986

To multiply a number by 110: first multiply by 10, then multiply the original number by 100 and add the two answers together:
197.726 x 10 = 1,977.26
197.726 x 100 = 19,772.6
1,977.26 + 19,772.6 = 21,749.86

What is the correct answer to the given calculation?
8,300 ÷ 200 = ?

40.5

41.5

To divide a number by 200: just divide by 2, then divide by 100:
8,300 ÷ 200 = (8,300 ÷ 2) ÷ 100 = 4,150 ÷ 100 = 41.5

What is the correct answer to the given calculation?
68 x 95 = ?

6,460

6,350

6,240

6,130

To multiply a number by 95, first multiply the number by 100 and remember your answer. Next, times the original number by 10 and half it. Finally, subtract your second answer from your first:
68 x 95 = (68 x 100) - (68 x 10) ÷ 2 = 6,800 - (680 ÷ 2) = 6,800 - 340 = 6,460

46,000 ÷ 99 = ?

466.466

464.646

462.462

460.46

To divide a number by 99, you can often just divide by 100 and repeat the number itself (ignoring any zeros): 46,000 ÷ 100 = 46 but 46,000 ÷ 99 = 464.64646464 etc…

83 x 120 = (83 x 100) + (83 x 100) ÷ 5 = 8,300 + (8,300 ÷ 5) = 8,300 + 1,660 = 9,960

What is the correct answer to the given calculation?
75 ÷ 15 = ?

That was an easy one! Did you know, when asked to divide more difficult numbers by 15, you can use this trick - first divide by 10, then multiply by 2, and finally divide by 3:
75 ÷ 15 = ((75 ÷ 10) x 2) ÷ 3 = (7.5 x 2) ÷ 3 = 15 ÷ 3 = 5
