Complete the missing number.

• 2

• 8

• 3

• 9

Answer explanation

Each side of the = sign should be the same. If we find out the answer to one side, it helps us find the answer to the other.

So... 32 divided by 4 is 8.

4 x ? = 8

This is quite tricky! We can flip it to the inverse to make it easier!

8 / 4 = 2

Therefore, the missing number is 2.
