Today’s post is another extension of our series on flash cards. Since we made our multiplication flash cards last, the division flash cards were easy to make by reversing the multiplication answers:
We basically need double the flash cards since 20 divided by 5 and 20 divided by 4 are two different problems, whereas 4×5 and 5×4 are effectively the same.

Today’s printable math work sheet generator will center around the concept of time.
We’ll have two types of questions – one will ask the student to draw in the hands on a blank clock face for a random time. The other type of question will be a word problem that provides a start time and a time increment and asks the student to calculate the finish time. We would have loved to generate a random clock face time and ask what time it is but that turns out to be incredibly difficult in a spreadsheet.
To create the random times, we use the formula =RANDBETWEEN(1,12) for the hours, and then =RANDBETWEEN(0,59) for the minutes, then use the formula =TIME(hours, minutes, 0 seconds) for the time to display. We also added in some logic to allow for the times to round to 5’s if the user puts in a “y” in cell E2.

Here’s how the final product looks:
