Exploring Fact Families in Multiplication and Division

This video tutorial introduces the concept of fact families in multiplication and division. It explains how factors and products are related and demonstrates the inverse relationship between multiplication and division. The tutorial covers examples using whole numbers and fractions, showing how to use fact families to solve problems with missing values. The use of a triangle diagram to visualize these relationships is also discussed.
