Practise multiplying and dividing by five. Count in fives, use arrays and equal groups, and spot word clues that tell you to times or share by five.

(quiz starts below)

Fascinating Fact:

Word clues “Groups of five” means ×5. “How many fives in 40?” means 40 ÷ 5 = 8. Clear as a bell.

In KS1 Maths, Year 2 pupils link multiplication and division by 5 using equal groups, arrays, and counting in fives. Word clues help: “groups of five” means multiply; “how many fives in…?” means divide.

  • Group of five: A set of 5 items; count groups to solve ×5 questions.
  • Multiple of 5: A number in the five-times table, like 5, 10, 15, 20.
  • Array: Objects in rows and columns that show × and ÷ facts clearly.

Warm up with quick sharing and grouping in fives: try the Division Game before you start the quiz.

How do I know when to use ×5 or ÷5?

Use ×5 for “groups of five” or “five each.” Use ÷5 for “how many fives in…?” or when sharing equally into five groups.

What are easy ways to learn the five-times table?

Count in fives on your fingers or a number line, clap every five, and read arrays like 3 rows of 5 to see 3 × 5 = 15.

Why do many multiples of 5 end in 0 or 5?

Every multiple of 5 is five more than the last. The ones digit alternates 5, 0, 5, 0… so results always end with 0 or 5.

1. What is the next number in this sequence: 15, 20, 25, 30, ?
[ ] 33
[ ] 31
[ ] 35
[ ] 40
2. Children sit in groups of 5. How many groups can be made from 30 children?
[ ] 35
[ ] 5
[ ] 6
[ ] 60
3. I pack crayons into boxes, putting 5 in each box. How many boxes will I need for 40 crayons?
[ ] 48, because 40 ÷ 5 = 48
[ ] 20, because 4 x 5 = 20
[ ] 45, because 40 + 5 = 45
[ ] 8, because 40 ÷ 5 = 8
4. What is 10 x 5?
[ ] 50
[ ] 2
[ ] 15
[ ] 5
5. I know that 12 x 5 = 60. What else do I know?
[ ] 12 ÷ 60 = 5
[ ] 60 + 5 = 12
[ ] 60 ÷ 12 = 5
[ ] 5 x 60 = 12
6. Which is the odd fact out?
[ ] 5 x 7 = 35
[ ] 35 ÷ 7 = 5
[ ] 35 ÷ 5 = 7
[ ] 7 ÷ 5 = 35
7. Which is not a multiple of 5?
[ ] 75
[ ] 90
[ ] 152
[ ] 105
8. How many 5s are there in 95?
[ ] 59
[ ] 9
[ ] 19
[ ] 15
9. Which number is in the 5 times table?
[ ] 785
[ ] 513
[ ] 556
[ ] 789
10. What is 55 ÷ 5?
[ ] 5
[ ] 15
[ ] 10
[ ] 11

Maths Quiz - Year 2 Calculation - Multiplication and Division By 5 (Answers)
1. What is the next number in this sequence: 15, 20, 25, 30, ?
[ ] 33
[ ] 31
[x] 35
[ ] 40
The numbers are going up in fives
2. Children sit in groups of 5. How many groups can be made from 30 children?
[ ] 35
[ ] 5
[x] 6
[ ] 60
30 ÷ 5 = 6
3. I pack crayons into boxes, putting 5 in each box. How many boxes will I need for 40 crayons?
[ ] 48, because 40 ÷ 5 = 48
[ ] 20, because 4 x 5 = 20
[ ] 45, because 40 + 5 = 45
[x] 8, because 40 ÷ 5 = 8
We could work this out from knowing that 5 x 8 = 40 or 8 x 5 = 40
4. What is 10 x 5?
[x] 50
[ ] 2
[ ] 15
[ ] 5
You would get the same answer from 5 x 10
5. I know that 12 x 5 = 60. What else do I know?
[ ] 12 ÷ 60 = 5
[ ] 60 + 5 = 12
[x] 60 ÷ 12 = 5
[ ] 5 x 60 = 12
If 12 groups of 5 makes 60, then 60 divided into groups of 12 will mean 5 in each group
6. Which is the odd fact out?
[ ] 5 x 7 = 35
[ ] 35 ÷ 7 = 5
[ ] 35 ÷ 5 = 7
[x] 7 ÷ 5 = 35
7 ÷ 5 does not give a whole number as an answer
7. Which is not a multiple of 5?
[ ] 75
[ ] 90
[x] 152
[ ] 105
Multiples of 5 only end in 5 or 0
8. How many 5s are there in 95?
[ ] 59
[ ] 9
[x] 19
[ ] 15
Counting up in 5s until you reach 95 is helpful here
9. Which number is in the 5 times table?
[x] 785
[ ] 513
[ ] 556
[ ] 789
Looking only at the last digit is important when spotting multiples of 5
10. What is 55 ÷ 5?
[ ] 5
[ ] 15
[ ] 10
[x] 11
There are 11 groups of 5 in 55
