Question

The two smallest numbers in one of the multiplication and division fact families are $7$ and $8.$ What could be the third number in the fact family?

Answer 1

If we are given the two smallest numbers in a fact family, the third number needs to be greater than the two numbers.
To get a number greater than $7$ and $8$ in the fact family, we will multiply the $2$ numbers.
$7\times 8=56$

Hence, option A is correct.
