Halloween Multiplication and Division Activity Scaling activity to change the size of Halloween items
Step 1 - Scaling up Draw the pumpkin into the large grid so it is twice the size. The small grid squares are 15 mm tall. The large grid squares are as tall as two of the small grid squares: 15 mm + 15 mm = 30 mm We could work also work this out using multiplication: 2 15 mm = 30 mm
Step 2 - Scaling down Draw the ghost into the smaller grid so it is half its size. The large grid squares are 30 mm tall. The small grid squares are half as tall we can work this out using division: 30 mm 2 = 15 mm
