Consolidation of Steps 6-7 Year 5 Multiplication and Division Learning Video Clip

The Greeks arrive back from Troy and the Spartans want to organise and train their troops. Selene and Orion must find a number of squadrons they can evenly distribute their new recruits into. Meanwhile, Alexios the architect is wrongfully arrested and must work out some possible missing digits in a division-based inequality statement. The Spartans work out how many metres of ground each squadron must protect and the ration distribution has mistakes which need correcting. Finally, the troops have to be split into formations, but with a given remainder staying behind to help the commanders.
