Missing Factor Game

Our class has been busy learning their multiplication facts!  We are also working on related problems (sometimes referred to as fact families).  Today we played a game using array cards to find the missing factor in a multiplication or division problem.   We are learning how multiplication and division are related.
The (above) top array card show the following number sentences.
4 x 10 = 40
10 x 4 = 40
40 divided by 10 = 4
40 divided by 4 = 10
What about the bottom one?  How can use  use multiplication to help you divide?
