When you want to check the answer to a division problem using multiplication, you follow a simple process involving the numbers and operations involved in the division.

Here's how to do it:

1. Begin with the original division problem. For example, let's say the problem is 15 ÷ 3, and the quotient is 5.

2. Take the quotient (in this case, 5) and multiply it by the divisor (in this case, 3). The result should be equal to the dividend (in this case, 15). So, 5 × 3 = 15.

3. If the result of the multiplication equals the dividend, then your division calculation is correct. In this case, 5 × 3 = 15, which matches the original division problem.

By performing the multiplication using the quotient and divisor, you can confirm that the division was done correctly. This method serves as a useful tool for double-checking your division calculations.

Multiplication and divisions are opposites.

12/2 = 6

6 * 2 - ?
